in college:
new apartment complex 600 a month 2 bedroom (had washer dryer in apt as well as dishwasher)
electric was 40 ish,
cable was 50ish
internet was 60ish
it seems that rent went up 10 or 20 bucks every year....... I counted all the apartments in the complex and figured that they brought in almost 100 grand a month in rent.
They built another complex last summer
