A lot of the USA also uses electric for the stove, oven and all household heating.

So does the UK. Everywhere I've lived in the UK had electric stoves; everywhere I've lived in the USA had gas stoves. I'd be interested to see stats if they exist.

Also in the USA you see gas-fired tumble dryers, which you never see in the UK, probably due to 240V all round.
