What is Average?
The water industry estimates that an average person uses 3,000 gallons  of water monthly, so a family of 4 would use 12,000 gallons for bathing, cooking, washing, recreation and watering. But a lot of factors come into play when calculating  average use. 

So in reality, one person's usage may be a lot higher or lower than  another
person's. Here are some things to think about, if you suspect  your water bill
is too high. 

        Households with lawns or gardens must factor in the amount of
        water sprinkled on grass, flowers and vegetables.  Outdoor watering
        uses 5 to 10 gallons per minute.  So in 10 or 20 minutes, you may use 
        100 gallons the amount industry experts estimate is used by an
        average person each day for all personal water needs.  If the climate 
        turns unseasonably dry, expect to use even more water to keep your 
        garden alive and your grass green.  
 
        The number of people in the household is an important factor.  Water 
        use generally rises if your family grows.

        A family with fashion conscious teenagers probably washes more 
        clothes more often than an older person who lives alone.  More water
        is used per load when the machine is set on high.

        If you take a tub bath, you will use about 42 gallons of water, 
        compared with the 17 gallons required for a shower.  New shower 
        heads, however, reduce the water used in an average shower to just 
        2 gallons per minute versus 5 or 6 gallons that spurt out
        of older shower heads.

        One toiled flush will use 5 to 7 gallons unless it is in a new home where
        1.5 gallon commodes are required.
