I'll be moving to HK by the end of August and can't find much (recent) information regarding the monthly utilities bill. Can somebody help me out with determining how much the bill will be (on avg) for electricity, gas and water?

Nothing has changed significantly in the last few months.
Water about $30/month
Gas depending on how much hot water you use and cooking you do, about HK$100-300/month.
Electricity depending on how much you have the aircon on, about HK$150-1500/month
the wide range that PDLM cited is right
besides your actual consumption habits,
it also depends on whether you have a gas water heater versus an electric water heater
whether you have an energy efficient a/c or an old one that has a dirty filter
whether you leave your computer and monitor on 24/7
etc
ok heres my utility bills per month.
Water: $100 (live in village house, toilet flush is fresh water)
Electricity: 600 (1 AC is constantly on 24 hrs for my huskies)
Gas: $100
Thanks a lot people. I was hoping it would not be more than HKD 2.000 a month and I kinda had the feeling that the AC would be most consuming :-).
