Wow, some of these stories just sound awful.
My first apartment out of college was only 700 sq feet. Paid close to 1000/month after utilities. The reason being that my unit shared a meter with 2 other units. We would divide the cost of electricity among 3 units. One of the tenants in the other apartment always left the A.C on during the summer. My living room was too small to have any furniture, hence I never had any guests come over.
