Why my pipes aren't going to freeze.

My apartment complex seems to think that because my heat is off in the midwest USA, in February my pipes will freeze.  Let me explain to you why they won't.

A)  I'm in an upstairs apartment.
B) I share two walls with other peoples apartments, whom I presume have the heat on still.
C) I take very long hot baths at least once a day, and therefore have hot water moving through my pipes with regularity.
D)  It is simply not that cold out.  It isn't below freezing with regularity.

As an asside, if my pipes freeze- then 8 apartments worth of pipes should freeze. Therefore it isn't my fault.
