Hi Everyone!
Say besides a sometimes high electric bill, does anyone out there have some figures/costs on what an average water bill will run you in Bullhead City or Fort Mojave being on city water? How about being on your own well.. is there any problems with well water? Anyone have one that ran dry? What about the quality of city water vs. well water? if there is anyone out there from Bullhead City or Fort Mojave.. Please give any information or input you might have,,, Thanks a Bunch!
Oh.. 1 more thing.. what about costs if you have a pool? Thanks!

A piece of irony here:

When I lived in Bullhead City last year; our apartment complex (built ca. 1982) had its own well yet the new building going up right next door is slated to receive municipal water from the city.

I'm in Ft. Mohave, and our water bills in the summer what with watering the lawns run about $70-80 all in. a month. Run lawn sprinklers for about 10 min twice a day, and bubblers for bushes about 5 min twice a day. Lawn did well, at that watering, except for the stretch when it got up to 120 every day for a couple of weeks.

Now I'm running sprinklers for 5 min once a day for lawn, 5 min for bubblers I think, and bills down to about $40 bucks all in.

I know some folks with well water, but that's not all that common anymore. Nor are pools, just evaporates too fast, plus the residential lots here are pretty small.

For drinking, you're going to need a RO system or bottled water, and water softener, water's way too hard here no matter which way you go.

Hope that all helped.
Bob
