# Domestic well permits in Costilla County, Colorado — 1,504

> The 1,504 wells permitted for domestic in Costilla County. Median depth 180 feet.

## Domestic wells in Costilla County

**1,504** of the 4,256 well permits in Costilla County — 35.3% — are decreed for domestic.

### How this group compares

Costilla County holds 0.6% of
Colorado’s 243,096 domestic permits, while
holding 0.7% of the register overall — so it is
**under-represented** in this
use.

Domestic means household water, and usually a little more — the commonest decreed use in Colorado by a wide margin.

*Medians, on the permits where the Division was told — never a mean, which a few industrial wells would carry away*

| Measurement | Median | 90th percentile | Colorado median |
|---|---|---|---|
| Depth | **180 ft** | 400 ft | 148 ft — deeper here (994 permits, 66 %) |
| Yield | **10 gpm** | 15 gpm | 10 gpm — the same here (439 permits, 29 %) |
| Static water level | **87 ft** | 260 ft | 58 ft — higher here (774 permits, 51 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**942** of the 1,504 permits decreed for domestic in Costilla County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 62.6%. And
**279** expired without one: 18.6%.

An expired permit is the trap in a rural sale. A seller can
produce a permit that lapsed years ago, and a permit is not a water right
— the two are separate, and a purchase turns on both.
