Here I used AI to get an estimate:

For water + electricity alone, not having one kid might save roughly $225 to $750 per year in many U.S. households. That’s a utility-only estimate, not the full cost of raising a child, which is much larger when housing, food, childcare, healthcare, and transportation are included.
