Sounds like you live in a water scarce region (e.g. the southwest). If so, think about moving if water scarcity disturbs you, because there will be a lot more of that in the upcoming decades -- the problem is the number of people trying to live with the same finite resource.

Water is plentiful in many areas of the earth. Where I live, it was common just 20 years ago for sinks to just have continually flowing pipes with no faucets, since the water was diverted from streams or springs that just flow into the sea anyway. This rainy season we've had well over 200" of rain.
