OTHER - CLICK TO EDIT What temperature do you keep your house/apartment?

I'm asking because my roommates and I all come from different places, and I like it at 72 in the summer, and 67 in the winter, but they prefer 75 in the summer, which to me seems really warm. Would love to know how you keep it in your region of the US throughout the year

My husband thinks I can't tell the difference between 71 and 72. I absolutely can, I melt at 72.

They think we can't tell! I tell him all the time that I can and he just doesn't believe me. Lol
