In my opinion the only times I'm ever uncomfortably hot is when I'm choosing voluntarily to be in the sun. For example going to beach.

99% of the time I'm in 67 degree AC in a hoodie lol

67F would have cost me a fortune in FL. For some reason, super tall cathedral ceilings are common in FL homes, making cool costs even higher.

i think it's cause 2 story homes are much less common here compared to up north

i live in a pretty new apartment building and the AC/insulation is very efficient. although to be honest I don't even know what I pay in power, my girlfriend usually pays that one

My previous home in FL was two stories and I would nearly always break $300 for power for the hotter half of the year until I got solar panels, and that was with the A/C set to 78F, and I did not have a particularly large home. A newer apartment would definitely had an advantage on that front since you're surrounded by other units.
