Sounds like youre in a poorly insulated dwelling. By comparison, I'm in a 14 year old apartment in Melbourne and hardly needed the heater this winter. Its got a heat pump air con / heater so heating / cooling not expensive

    Might be. I've lived in a house in Warrnambool and a house in Ballarat, so no neighbours above, below or beside to help keep my unit consistent like I did in Edmonton.

    I'm also not a builder or any tradie, so I'm not sure what the houses are really made of. I just know the noticeable differences between how I felt in houses and apartments in Canada vs houses in south/southwest Victoria.

    I did live in an apartment in Preston for a short stint, and didn't use heating or cooling at all. It was lovely, sans the meth heads upstairs.
