Whatever my wife sets it to. If I'm walking around naked with all the windows open she'll figure out that I'm displeased with her temperature choice.
 
Literally have not turned on my heater in over a month. My apartment is sitting at 74. I'm on floor 3 of 4. I think it's perfect for getting the heat from the people below me.

I like it colder at night...around 62-65. Early December I was keeping it around 68 while awake. 68-70 is about perfect for me for shorts and t-shirt.
 
Winter: ~77-79F. The vents are blocked off elsewhere to keep the heat in the room I'm usually in. The air's nice and dry in winter, so higher temperatures are preferable and more comfortable for me.

Summer: More like 72-74F.
I don't really care for temperatures below about 68F, as my hands and feet start to get really cold, then they start to sweat, and evaporation makes them even colder. :\

Winter: 68 during the day, 60 when everyone is asleep.
Summer: 78, AC is off when everyone is asleep. The summers aren't particularly dry (like California), or else I would ok with 80+. Dry heat doesnt both me much.
 
72 is the perfect temperature for long pants and a short sleeved shirt.
That's what we keep our house set at in the winter.
When my office is 72, it's nice and comfortable.
Anything below 70 and my hands get chilly, even if I'm wearing a sweater. That's not good for a job that involves using a computer all day.

In the summer, when everyone is wearing shorts, we generallly keep our AC at around 76.
