“Included” means the rent covers it, and nothing in this table says that. Several buildings split charges into a flat part (trash, pest control, amenity fee) and a usage part (water, sewer, electric). Add the flat charges to base rent before you compare buildings, then ask each office what a typical month of water and electric has cost. “Not stated” means the page I read did not say, not that the charge is zero.

How should I compare utility costs between buildings?
Ask each leasing office for three numbers in writing: the total of the flat monthly charges, an average water and sewer bill for your floor plan, and who sets up electric service. Hyde Park McKinney, Main 3 and The Park at Katy Trail all say residents set up some service themselves, so the first bill can differ from the quoted rent.
