How does Quality Inn compare with other water systems in Sussex County?
By EPA's size categories, Quality Inn is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Sussex County has 476 active public water systems.

Across New Jersey, the 3,496 active systems average 2,750 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Quality Inn is well below that figure.
