ABSTRACT:

The datasets presented here comprises of a municipal water uses dataset and a city-level climatic, urban-geologic and socio-economic characteristics dataset, for 126 cities/ towns within the Contiguous United States (CONUS). The municipal water use dataset presents monthly water use information of those 126 cities for the period 2005 to 2017, under residential, commercial-industrial-institutional (CII), master meter and total water use categories. Data for the municipal water uses dataset were collected directly from the cities/ towns/ water providers and also from open data access sites for few cities/ towns in the state of California. The city characteristics dataset presents climatic, urban-geologic and socio-economic factors of the 126 cities/ towns collected from multiple published sources indicated in the Sources section of this publication. These datasets are products of an extensive work undertaken by the authors at Colorado State University under the UWIN project to characterize the trends in municipal water uses across CONUS.
