Location is not the determinate. In virtually every area where natural gas is available, it is cheaper than electric.
Don't lose sleep over it. CO posioning occurs when people run charcoal fires indoors.
I grew up in a house that had natural gas space heaters. They've got to be WAY out of adjustment to generate carbon monoxide.
As for smooth top electric ranges, we bought on a few years ago. We do like it, but the burners heat a little slow, and do stay warm for quite a while. Our range has warnings lights that stay on as long as the top is hot. We do not use cast iron pans so that was not and issue. Gas is probably the preferred cook top for "real" chefs. Greg
I don't know about virtually, but a mile down the road from me is a different utility. The electric price they offer is cheaper than natural gas so don't assume it will be! Greg
