House here is worth 25% more than the house I sold in Illinois.

Taxes here are 25% of what I paid in Illinois.

You read that correctly.
The average tax rate for Illinois is 2% and for Florida is 1% so thats possible

The report found residents in Hawaii spent the most on their utility bills, on average, at $633 per month. That was followed by Maine ($500/month), New Jersey ($467/month), Connecticut ($463/month) and Vermont ($428/month).+

On the opposite end of the list, Mississippi residents had the least expensive utility bills in the U.S., averaging just $255 per month, followed by South Dakota ($278/month), North Carolina ($282/month), Missouri ($284/month) and Georgia ($286/month), the report shows.

The most expensive city for utility bills, however, may come as a surprise. According to Doxo, Milwaukee’s residents are paying the most each month at $538 — almost $200 more than the national average. After Milwaukee, the five most expensive large cities were New York ($511), Los Angeles ($455), Pittsburgh and San Jose (both at $439).
Minneapolis ($209), Memphis ($216), Austin ($221), Atlanta ($240), and Charlotte ($247) have the least expensive bills of America’s largest cities.

Yeah, for once a cost ranking where CA isn't actually top 5? 

I think it's a combination of smaller homes (due to housing cost) and temperate weather so we don't need to spend as much on heating/cooling, even though our NG/electricity rates are higher than other states.

My step kids' house in SD is "tiny".  They have a pretty nice backyard, fenced in, that helps, in that climate.  I'm guessing it's 1,000 sf and cost near a million.

How can Milwaukee be the most expensive utilities on average when that average is less than the state average of Hawaii?  That should mean at least one city in Hawaii is more than Milwaukee.

Possible that there is a population cutoff for city size. Milwaukee is over 500K while Honolulu is under 350K. And if it's including the wider metro area Milwaukee is >1.5M while Honolulu is ~1M.

I wondered that myself, though perhaps the rest of WI is very cheap.  And of course a lot of the bill is for heat which might be mostly fuel oil in Mil.

Hawaii is expensive for nearly everything, except wine.
