# Household Use Only well permits in Gunnison County, Colorado — 2,538

> The 2,538 wells permitted for household use only in Gunnison County. Median depth 78 feet.

## Household Use Only wells in Gunnison County

**2,538** of the 8,894 well permits in Gunnison County — 28.5% — are decreed for household use only.

### How this group compares

Gunnison County holds 2.4% of
Colorado’s 105,372 household use only permits, while
holding 1.5% of the register overall — so it is
**over-represented** in this
use.

Household Use Only means the narrowest domestic permit there is: water inside the house, and nothing else. No lawn, no livestock, no garden. It is the use most often misunderstood by a buyer who assumes a well means water for the land.

*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 | **78 ft** | 320 ft | 148 ft — shallower here (1,725 permits, 68 %) |
| Yield | **15 gpm** | 15 gpm | 10 gpm — higher here (673 permits, 27 %) |
| Static water level | **28 ft** | 135 ft | 58 ft — lower here (1,643 permits, 65 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**1,458** of the 2,538 permits decreed for household use only in Gunnison County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 57.4%. And
**570** expired without one: 22.5%.

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.
