Here in Houston: 75 during the day, 72 at night. Winter: 72 during the day, "off=60 F" at night.
When I lived in Western Mass: 65 during waking hours downstairs, all other times 50F. Upstairs, 50F unless the step daughter was around. It never really dropped to 50F but I didn't want it dropping below that. I also used to run a wood stove because wood was CHEAP. Even with Fuel Oil at "only" $1.25/gallon, wood was still cheaper. I cannot imagine the price to heat my old house with the price of fuel now! We would go through about 225 gallons in 3 weeks, in February.
