My water bill runs about $60 per month. However, that includes the sewer bill and our local trash pickup so I guess it isn't too bad. I really don't mind the bill as it is one of the lower ones that we have. I wish they all ran about that cost. I could pay all in one month then and not have to pay late fees.

That's about what ours is too and includes the same things. This is our lowest bill of anything - gas/electric, phone/cell/DSL, cable.

That is great to be billed every three months.. It may seem like a high price.. But, it is worth it. I would love to pay for my water and sewage and trash services altogether. I can come up with this amount every three months, instead of every month..

Our water bill was about 20.00 last month and thats more than what it usually is, most of the time its around 15 to $16.00. We're on a rural water district, so its not that expensive.

usually about 16 bucks a month.. maybe 1 month a year it will be 30 and that is because they may have not measured often enough and kept billing me the same when it was a little more

I pay an average $45 per month for water alone for every 3 months.
Total on my water, garbage and sewerage is $100 for every 3 months.

Our water bill usually is around $30 each month. They bill our water and sewage together but they show them each separately. Both run in the 30's for us.

My water bill runs any where from 35.00 to 50.00 a month. I cloth diaper and there are 4 adults in the house. I try my hardest to conserve water, but sometimes my son has a lot of sports stuff going on and he takes 2 showers a day!!

On the average, we consume about two to three dollars every month. There are six people in our household namely: me, my husband, our daughter, and my three younger siblings. Compared to others cities or areas and consumers, this water bill is quite cheap.
But I remember a time when we have just transferred to our current rented house, when our bill suddenly soared to more than a thousand pesos or approximately twenty dollars. This is still cheap for other people but for us, this is already too much because we aren't used to consuming as much water as this one.
Immediately, we checked on our water facilities including faucets and toilet tanks. And when we found out that the culprit is the leak in the tank, we decided to disconnect the tube and sacrifice having no toilet flush. Instead, we resorted to manually flushing the toilet bowl with the use of a small pail of water. From then on, our bill hasn't gone up to four dollars monthly.

It's about $19 and jumps up to $23 when summer is here and I have to water the flowers. It's been really dry here so I had to water a few times.

Being that our bill is combined, I think that's normal, water, sewer, trash, and billed every 3 months, it averages about $$60 - $70 per month! Pretty high to me, but I'm not living alone anymore! My younger brother's helping raise my bills:)

Higher than the average household. Our subdivision would not allow us to connect with the public water system. They kind of monopolize it but the good thing about it is, safer and more clean. $45-$50?

we pay quarterly-it's usually $600 even with conservation.
so that's roughly $200 a month.
water is overpriced here,and it tastes horrible for what we pay for it.

hi cream well thats one small break we get the apartment complex pays the water, we pay gas, and electricity. however since we are paying $1250 for rent seems to me like they could afford to pay something for us. we are moving and going further up the coast where its not quite as expensive so I am told.
