Why we don't cover internet

Internet service varies widely—many providers, different plans, introductory offers, and bundles make it hard to compare apples to apples. We focus on electric, water, sewer, and trash where rates are more standardized, but we do offer a tool to help you compare internet service providers in your area.

Assumptions

  • Electric: 1000 kWh/month (total includes regulated delivery from the utility when delivery is modeled separately)
  • Water: 5,000 gallons/month

What these labels mean

  • Confirmed — From this area's rate schedule.
  • Benchmark — From an official typical (e.g. state commission 1,000 kWh); not city-specific.
  • Delivery only — Regulated delivery charges only (e.g. Texas); supply varies by plan.
  • Supply vs delivery (MA) — Electric supply ($/kWh) is the generation portion; delivery is wires, transmission, and programs from Eversource or National Grid. Municipal aggregation (e.g. Boston, Cambridge) replaces only the supply price.
  • Estimated — From other or incomplete sources; use as a rough guide.

FAQ

Trash in Weymouth is provided by the city as part of municipal utilities and is billed at a monthly fee. Rates and services are set by the local government; our estimate uses the fee from Town of Weymouth – FY26 Budget Book (local receipts / trash fee narrative).
We use base charges and per-unit rates from official provider pages. Electric = base + (rate × assumed kWh). Water = base + (rate per 1,000 gal × assumed gallons / 1,000). Sewer is either a flat fee or a percentage of water. Trash is a fixed monthly fee. See the Methodology page for full formulas.
Actual bills depend on your usage, seasonal rates, taxes, fees, and provider-specific rules. Massachusetts splits electric into regulated delivery (Eversource or National Grid) and supply (Basic Service, municipal aggregation like Boston/Cambridge, or a competitive supplier). We show supply and delivery separately when data allows; totals use 1,000 kWh for comparison.
Each component shows a 'last verified' date. We aim to update from official sources periodically; always confirm current rates on the provider's site before making decisions.
