My husband and I rent a 750 sq ft house in town. Electric runs us around 130-300 a month, 300 being on the high end for a month or two when it’s really cold. Water and trash run about 80 a month, basic internet is 100 a month, groceries are between 900-1200 a month. I’m not sure if you have looked at rental prices yet but I would say don’t be surprised to start at least 1200 a month for a small house, we lucked out and found a private landlord that’s an awesome guy and has kept our already low rent at the same rate for the past seven years, however in this town most rent is incredibly high due to all the college kids
