| General note |
Summary: “This study finds that the current water supply situation in Nairobi, Mombasa, and Kakamega is dismal. Although about half of the sampled households have access to private piped water connections, only 5 percent of those connected are poor. The poor households are thus overwhelmingly dependent on alternative water sources and end up spending an average of 42 minutes in collecting water (compared with 15 minutes spent by non-poor households). These findings are not surprising. Indeed, stories of underserved poor households are legion in the literature, which shows that the urban poor are not likely to have a private water connection, are likely to be paying high unit prices for water that they purchase, and are spending a significant amount of time in collecting water”—(p. 27). |
