# Household Use Only well permits in Teller County, Colorado — 7,077

> The 7,077 wells permitted for household use only in Teller County. Median depth 300 feet.

## Household Use Only wells in Teller County

**7,077** of the 10,843 well permits in Teller County — 65.3% — are decreed for household use only.

### How this group compares

Teller County holds 6.7% of
Colorado’s 105,372 household use only permits, while
holding 1.8% 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 | **300 ft** | 520 ft | 148 ft — deeper here (4,908 permits, 69 %) |
| Yield | **6 gpm** | 10 gpm | 10 gpm — lower here (3,403 permits, 48 %) |
| Static water level | **62 ft** | 147 ft | 58 ft — higher here (4,745 permits, 67 %) |

### What happened to these permits

**4,628** of the 7,077 permits decreed for household use only in Teller County ended with a
well the Division was told about — 65.4%. And
**1,459** expired without one: 20.6%.

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.
