Estimated equivalent population using public supply water in the conterminous United States, ULUEM

Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: September 10, 2026 at 09:29 PM | Dataset Last Updated: July 31, 2024 at 12:00 AM
The population using public supply drinking water was mapped in two ways: the census enhanced method (CEM) evenly distributes the population across the census block-group, and the urban land-use enhanced method (ULUEM) distributes the population only to certain urban land use designations in order to more precisely locate public supply users. This dataset consists of the total estimated population using public supply surface water and groundwater combined, distributed using the urban land-use enhanced method.
