SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec 23, 2024--
A new report released today from doxo reveals that Americans spend an average of $362 per month on utilities, up 3% from last year. Through a statistical analysis of actual household payments toward utilities across 97% of U.S. zip codes, doxoINSIGHTS' U.S. Utilities Market Size and Household Spend Report for 2024 reveals that Americans spend $451 billion annually on utility bills.
