Mines high as crap right now due to watering the yard with the drought. Last one was $380. Typically it runs $30-40 with just me and the wife. You may look at building a water catch system off your roof for watering. $380 several months in a row you’ll pay for a system real quickly If I didn't live in a neighborhood I would have a well for irrigation. My water bill gets pricey in the summertime.

I'm on Central Elmore Water Authority in Elmore County. It runs about $35-40. Really goes up when the redhead starts watering her 5000 flowers. Up to $65. Redheads are expensive, I was told a firm No Return Policy on her.

My water bill gets pricey in the summertime. nope. i live out in the woods. if it dont rain nothing gets watered. that means less grass to cut. i aint paying the man to keep bushes and grass alive.I PAY HIM enough to fill the bathtubs up for the wife and daughter several times a week

Mine with trash included with $250-300/month from now through October while watering the yard. When I first laid 24 pallets of Emerald Zoysia in September of 2024 my bill was over $900/month for September and October until rain finally kicked in in November. Wish I could've seen my wife's face when she opened those bills!

People got more money than they know what to do with if they’re spending $100’s of dollars to water a yard.

Mine runs from $65.00 to $85.00 per month.
Just me, my wife, my dawg, stupid arse cat, and 28 head of cattle consume it each month.

So i like up rates online for a Lowndes County Water Authority and it initially pulled up Georgia. For their rates, you can use 3000 gains of water for $18.88 and $2.68/ 1000 after. For comparison, Lowndes County Alabama is $35.93 for 3000 gallons and $8.43/1000 above that.
Hell, my water bill was 1/3-1/4 of my power bill. Water isn't being produced. Electricity is. Power is being used 24/7 at my house. Water, probably less than an hour daily. Power company has much more expensive equipment. Higher salaries. Better benefits. Etc. Their costs are a hell of a lot more than my local water authority. It's not apples too apples, but i don't see why water should be anywhere near what they charge.
Daily rant. Thanks for listening.. lol

LCWA automatically charges a water loss fee which is insurance for leaks. They don't tell you about it and I've known people to pay large bills due to a leak not knowing it was there. Not sure if you may have that or not
