We keep our oil-burning boiler thermos at 60, but a wood stove and heat pump augment the whole house to 65-70.
There’s other factors, like hidden drafts or an unheated basement/slab, that can make you chilled to the bone despite having the temp over 60. We now heat our basement and I went around and put gaskets and plugs in all the external outlets. Super cozy now.
