Answer to Question 1

Answers will vary. Domestic water use is generally higher in the West and Southeast.

Answer to Question 2

Total water use involves usage beyond what is used by individuals in their homes. Some
states may have particular industries or agricultural activities that use large amounts
of water. For example, some states use water to grow crops that are sold and used
elsewhere.
