You've been downvoted, but I think that's fairly true. My monthly bill is right around the high end of that median, and I expect a big driver of that is the year-round temperate climate. I don't run the heat much in the winter, and don't even have air conditioning for the summer (though lately I wish I did).
Rewind back to my childhood, living in NJ in the 80s and MD in the 90s. Our utility bill was significantly higher than what I pay now (inflation-adjusted) because the heat and a/c were on constantly for several months each out of the year.
