In the Northwest, heating with gas is roughly 1/3 the cost of heating with electricity. I would bet just about anywhere in the country gas is 1/2 the cost or better.

Lights that tend to be used for extended periods of time are either CFL or LED. Lights that get cycled often such as closets and vanity are all incandescent. My outdoor lights are on a switch that knows when sunrise and sunset is, and acts accordingly.
