4.1 Price, income, and water sourceTable 9 reports the average price, monthly income, and the percentage ratio of monthly water bill to income by source of water. The cost of water varied widely by source of water. Households with official MWSS connections pay the lowest price for water averaging P-5.50 per cubic meter. In areas where a centralized sewer system exists, the cost of water and sewerage service is about P8.50 per cubic meter. Private waterworks charge a price that is slightly over 40% higher than MWSS average price without sewer. In contrast, vended water costs much higher, ranging from about P22 per cubic meter when indirectly buying MWSS water through plastic hose at fixed charges to as high as P-72 per cubic meter for MWSS water delivered to the households.
