What does it cost to rent or own the space needed for a darkroom?

I can run film in my bathroom, but it would take me an hour to set 
up and break down a printing setup there (still much less than 
ideal), and I don't know where I'd store the equipment when it 
wasn't in use. 

The costs aren't just in equipment, and aren't just financial.
