For heat: Downstairs is set in the low sixties. There are two bedrooms upstairs with separate thermostats. One is set at 55 and the other is off. It isn't really necessary to run it upstairs, because the heat comes up from the lower level. (This, of course, makes it a nightmare in summer.) For air conditioning, we have window air conditioners, that we only use when someone is home and it is hot out (above 85). The large one in the living/dining/kitchen area is usually set in the low seventies. The one in the small bedroom we use as an office is set in the low seventies if someone is in there. My bedroom upstairs also has a window air conditioner. I usually set it at 80. The outside temperature is usually lower than that at night, but despite opening the windows, running the attic fan, and running a ceiling fan and a small portable fan, I can't get it below 85 or so. Sometimes in the late summer (end of August or September) I'm so sick of being hot and sweaty at night that I'll turn it down to 75. The other two bedrooms in the house do not have air conditioning. (One gets some from the living/dining/kitchen A/C, and the other is just really hot all summer long.)

Someone said 80? That is so wasteful!
I live in a passive solar house and heat with wood. I'm comfortable at 60-65 in the main area of the house. There is a second stove in the north end and I can bring the temp up higher in there on a cold windy winter day.
80 mumble mumble that's outrageous! The human body is at its most efficient at an ambiant temp of 68. That's a fact!

I have to admit I like my house cold and I live in New England where it is cold in the winter. 64 is normal for me and at night I turn my bedroom heat to 60. In the summer I can't get the house cool enough because I only have ac in the bedroom. My hubby always turns the heat up to 68-70 and I complain it is too hot and turn it back to 64 or less.

When it's really cold 70-75 degrees. If it's not that cold, we keep the house warm at 68 degrees.

62 degrees at night
67-69 during the day
If you have little kids at home, some people keep it warmer. I have portable heater in kids room, so I don't need to raise heat in the whole house. If it gets really cold (NJ), I turn fireplace on without increasing overall heat.
