Oh yep, not the same person here but price varies widely.
In my apartment complex, we have Blink network EV chargers at $0.03/kWh which is a crazy price. The complex next door's Blink chargers charges $0.50ish/kWh (both of those are Level 2) and our apartment rates (for the hypothetical out-the-window Level 1 charging) is somewhere $0.14-0.18/kWh.
DC fast charging for trips will likely will charge closer to that $0.50/kWh mark depending on the location and will be a problem for those who don't have lower-cost charging at home.
That's a big range for "home" (but still commercial) charging and depending on the efficiency of the vehicle, the cost per mile will vary. The range will likely be around 2 mi/kWh to 4 mi/kWh.
