As also shown by Table 9, the average income of households with tap water from MWSS, private waterworks, and individual tubewells are significantly higher than households relying on vended water. For example, average income of households with MWSS connection is about three times that of households having to pick up the water from vendors. With the higher cost of water and lower incomes, poorer households have to spend a much greater proportion of income on water than wealthier households. Ironically, therefore, the poorer households without MWSS connections have to pay a much higher price for the same MWSS water at an even greater inconvenience.
