I am wondering: What temperature do you keep your house in the winter? How about in the summer?

In the winter it's not our choice, our landlord controls it..In the summer Josh keeps it at freezing
80f year round is what the theromstat is set at.
This translates to around 76f in the winter and 80-85 in the summer

In the winter, I keep my apartment in the low 60's, typically around 62 or 63 and in the summer it's the upper-70's or low 80's. It really just depends on the weather. We've had such a mild summer and fall so far, I haven't actually used the heat or the AC since about March.

Wintertime: 72F during waking hours when people are home, then it drops when DH is at work and kids are at school to 67F, back on at 4:30pm to 72F, then a night drop to 67F.
Summertime: AC is set to 80F during the day, 78F at night. ( DH sometimes bumps it down to 78F during the day )
we try to do our part to conserve hydro, especially with my snakies whom take a lot of hydro (even in the most efficient heating method)

My mom's house -where I am living right now - she is always cold!! So like 72 all year round unless she complains about how cold it is... so the temp may go up winter or summer.
At my condo... 70 for AC and 65 for heat. I have west facing windows so it can get warm in there in the summertime.

Last winter, Rob had the thermostat set at 68*F. It got cold a few nights last week and I have it set on 70* - we'll see how long that lasts
It hasnt been coming on lately though because the temps went back up.
In the summer I had the AC set for 77*F. We also have two ceiling fans in the house we kept going so we didn't have to jack the AC (and our bill!) up.

We're in an apartment and the heat is automatic. It's been quite warm in here the last few weeks, bit chilly at night though, and I have no idea what the temp is!
No one else is complaining, so that's good.
Summer we don't have AC and it can get really hot up here, so we have a ton of fans and often leave the curtains drawn.

I usually keep the temp around 70, I don't like it really hot, however so far this year I have not turned the heat up hardly at all. I am hoping because of these stupid hot flashes I actually save on heating bills this year.

I don't get to control the temperature here. So far, I do not like that because my apartment seems to get really warm.
Just a cultural note, the houses of my region doesn´t have termostates for warm enviroment, just A/C...

Aren't the old guys that do the ice swimming called Polar Bears?
I'd keep it 78F (25.5C) year round if I could. Usually that's what it is in the summer - give or take a couple degrees. In the winter it depends on how it is outside. If chilly-cold, it can stay under 74F (23.3C). If it starts getting bitter cold we push it back up to 76F-78F. Depends on general humidity.
My geckos do best if there's an ambient room temp of 75F - anything lower is too cold for them. And since I don't keep warm very well I don't like it cold in the house, either. If I get too cold I hurt.
