A recent study has found that Kansans pay the fourth lowest energy bills in the Nation and the lowest for the price of gasoline. The personal finance website “wallethub.com” says Kansas is pretty efficient. They compared the average monthly energy bill in each of the 50 states and Washington, D. C., with the use of a special formula, which accounts for electricity, natural gas, motor fuel and home heating oil.
The study says the Sunflower State ranked 48th overall, which means it is the fourth least energy expensive state. Kansans tend to pay an average of $396 per month on energy bills. Residents also pay about $127 per month for electricity — 29th in the Nation; $66 per month for natural gas –30th in the Nation; $188 for motor fuel — 29th in the Nation and $14 for home heating oil –44th in the Nation. The state with the highest energy bills was Wyoming at $738 a month and the lowest? Washington D. C. at $277 a month.
