Utilities first v. fourth floor?

Local Questions :snoo_thoughtful:

Hey everyone, I’m trying to budget for a new apartment and would love some input.

I’m looking at a 3 bed / 2 bath around 1300–1400 sq ft, and I’m curious:

What are you paying monthly for electric/what floor you live on?

I’m deciding between a first-floor unit vs a fourth-floor unit at two different complexes. I'm assuming living on fourth floor theres potential for higher energy bill due to heat rising --> a/c kicks on more. I’m curious whether there's really a difference in the energy bill?
