# Domestic well permits in Garfield County, Colorado — 5,381

> The 5,381 wells permitted for domestic in Garfield County. Median depth 122 feet.

## Domestic wells in Garfield County

**5,381** of the 12,165 well permits in Garfield County — 44.2% — are decreed for domestic.

### How this group compares

Garfield County holds 2.2% of
Colorado’s 243,096 domestic permits, while
holding 2.0% of the register overall — so it is
**over-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 | **122 ft** | 300 ft | 148 ft — shallower here (3,653 permits, 68 %) |
| Yield | **15 gpm** | 18 gpm | 10 gpm — higher here (1,436 permits, 27 %) |
| Static water level | **49 ft** | 180 ft | 58 ft — lower here (3,186 permits, 59 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**2,793** of the 5,381 permits decreed for domestic in Garfield County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 51.9%. And
**1,156** expired without one: 21.5%.

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.
