摘要：

Biennial data from 2017 to 2023 show that water and sewer prices increased substantially, from an average combined monthly price of $79.39 in 2017 to $95.02 in 2023 at 6,200 gallons per month for single-family residential customers.Water rate structures became more regressive during that time, with utilities collecting an increasing share of revenue through fixed charges and less revenue through volumetric charges.Average low-income affordability in the United States has worsened over the past six years, mainly driven by extreme unaffordability in a small minority of utilities.
