So im getting ready for college and wondering if 400$ a month is good price for rent all utilities included.  Basically its a 5 room house and we have 5 people moving in and it will cost 400 a room and  its a nice house internet and cable is also included in the rooms

Good price?

400 including utilities is wicked good from what I've been looking at.

thats good for sure. I'd go for it if you can't find anything even less with utilities. It also depends where it is though, too.

I've got a 1 bedroom to my self, $400/month + utils comes out to about $500/mo.

Also depends HUGELY on where in the country you live, and then what area of the city you're trying to live in. Good neighborhoods cost more. In Rochester, for a houseshare like that I'd expect to pay $300-400 month all inclusive, so I think you're in the right ballpark.
