Abstract
- A cross section demand function for water is estimated using individual residential dwelling units as the sample. Both assessed value of property and number of persons per dwelling are significant determinates of the quantity of water demanded consistent with the theoretical development. Moreover, it is concluded that there are economies of scale of water use with respect to household size.
