I live in Cleveland on the shore of Lake Erie. Water is abundant and cheap here but I don’t let the water run because thats how I was raised. Fun fact: folks here will see droughts on the news that are happening out west and start conserving water. They’re trying to do their part, nothing wrong with that. In the past the water department has sent out mailers encouraging people to water their lawns. There are huge water improvement projects going on and they need the money.
