In the late 1940s, utility costs varied by location and provider, but on average, consumers paid around $10 to $20 per month for electricity, which would be equivalent to roughly $100 to $200 today when adjusted for inflation. Water and gas services were generally less expensive, with total monthly utility bills typically amounting to 5-10% of a household's income at that time. These rates reflected the post-war economic conditions and the expansion of utility services across the United States.
