>These statistics don't speak to every nook in the cheaper regions. But where private water utilities reign-water is cheaper.> Compare in one state, say New Jersey. Here is one finding New Jersey residents pay much more if private companies control their water systems. Food & Water Watch surveyed the rates of the 14 largest community water systems in New Jersey and found that, on average, privately run systems charge households 64 percent more than municipal systems charge. A typical household using 5,000 gallons a month pays an extra $153 a year if its water services are privatized (see Appendix A for more details).16 inthepublicinterest.org -Arun
