Technically speaking electric heat is the most efficient energy wise, but can be costly if the house itself looses a lot of heat. Unless you have a wood burning fire place, there isn't anything much cheaper that I know of. Typical baseboard electric heaters are about 175 watts per foot.

My place is about 1400sf and built in 2004, and during dec/jan/feb it can cost a small fortune to heat, approx ~$300-400 per month. Have a feeling it will be a cold one this year.
