| Measurement | Median | 90th percentile | Colorado median |
|---|---|---|---|

What happened to these permits
257 of the 1,623 permits decreed for other in Weld County ended with a well the Division was told about — 15.8%. And 98 expired without one: 6.0%.
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. What an expired permit does and does not mean.
