Daily Indoor/Outdoor Water Usage for Top 15 MSAs

Flume Data Labs is the leading provider of residential water usage across the United States.

Flume's expansive network of water sensors collect usage data every 5 seconds. This high resolution sampling paired with machine learning powers gives us the ability to break usage down by appliance type - sprinklers, dishwasher, toilet, shower, etc.

Flume's aggregate data collection allows customers to answer questions such as
- "How prevalent are leaks in Los Angeles homes?"
- "How does water use differ from homes built in the 1940s to homes built in the last 10 years?"
- "How prevalent are water softeners in San Antonio?"
- "How does lot size affect outdoor usage in Colorado?"

This listing is a sample of the data that is available. The sample includes indoor, outdoor and total average daily water usage across the 15 most populated metro areas in the United States.
