What are all the basic expenses when living in a apartment such as gas and electricity?

I really can only think of water, electric, gas, rent, but i want a full list of expenses and general amount of the bills.

It depends very heavily on your area, especially the rent. Where I'm at: Gas: $30 Electricity: $30ish, it varies around there. Water: it is paid for by the apartment in my case. Check your contract. Internet: is also paid for by the apartment here. Other local places its $30. Rent: My share is $225. Total for the whole apartment: $675 Other local apartments go from 400 total to 1000 dollars and up. Other things to consider: Land-line phone bills, cable if you want it, any type of insurance you may want to get, transportation bills, etc. If you're renting from a corporation, watch out for annual rent increases. Renting from a private party (aka, Joe Shmoe's basement) avoids that, but then Joe Shmoe might have kids that have to be asleep at 8:00 pm sharp, so choose your battles.
