Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-008570

Community water system (CWS) service areas describe the geographic area that a water system serves. This map layer describes the geographic extent of over 44,000 community water system service areas, and accounts for around 99% of all people served by a community water system. Approximately 40% of these system's service areas were gathered from state sources. The remaining service areas were modeled using various explanatory variables, such as housing unit density.
