SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — Utah has some of the most expensive household bills in the nation.

The 2024 U.S. Household Bill Pay Report by Doxo shows the average Utah household pays $1,967 more per year than the national average.

The big driver for that extra case is Utah’s high housing cost as it is 12% higher than much of the rest of the country.

Car loans, internet, and cable bills were also found to be significantly more expensive in Utah.
