> Nope. I'm in PG&E territory. Electricity is too expensive and natural gas is too cheap.

Yes, the electricity rates in the IOU territories (PGE, SCE, SDGE) are horribly high.

But in publicly owned LADWP or SMUD, the average rate is around $.22/kWh, depending on usage patterns. Not Pacific Northwest cheap, but definitely better than PGE.

Yes, muni power is significantly cheaper. Unfortunately it's in the minority. PG&E is the dominant player in most of California. In the Bay Area only Alameda and Santa Clara (cities) have muni power. PG&E's astroturfed (hi Greg Dewar!) and lobbied hard against it each time it comes up.
