To understand how much Americans around the country are shelling out on energy, WalletHub analyzed electricity, natural gas, motor fuel and home heating oil prices in each of the 50 states. Using that data, Visual Capitalist mapped the total monthly energy costs per state, as of June 3, 2024.

Wyoming is home to the highest energy bills by far, with the total monthly cost averaging at a whopping $1,591. Following behind is North Dakota ($840), Iowa ($798) and Montana ($787).

On the other hand, energy is cheapest in New Mexico, where the average monthly bill is just $376, and Arizona, where residents pay $400.

    Fake news. Costs are not even close to what they are saying as mine are a fraction of this

    Terrible way to break it down, seeing as how the Wyoming average is 100% including bills for 5-figure acre properties alongside by 1/4 acre plot in Cheyenne.

    It's expensive, don't get it twisted, but I have a 2400 sq ft house and my bill is $290 every month.
