How does Kidz Can 2 compare with other water systems in Madera County?
By EPA's size categories, Kidz Can 2 is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Madera County has 202 active public water systems.

Nationally, the average active non-transient non-community water system reports serving 430 people, so Kidz Can 2 is well below that figure.
What does “non-transient non-community water system” mean?
A non-transient non-community water system regularly serves at least 25 of the same people for more than six months a year, but not where they live.

California has 1,466 active non-transient non-community water systems, 20% of the state's 7,479 active systems. Groundwater means the system draws its water from wells or springs fed by underground aquifers. 6,179 California systems (83%) list groundwater as their primary source.
