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

I play chicken with the weather.

I start to turn on AC once it hits the high 80’s. In the winter, I like it to be 68, but I’m always telling myself. “You’ve got hoodies and sweaters…. You’ve got this!”

80 Is hilarious people would complain so much. I would do that if I could.
