How does Monitor Inn compare with other water systems in Marion County?
By EPA's size categories, Monitor Inn is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Marion County has 192 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 1,921 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 368,811 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Oregon, the 2,536 active systems average 1,587 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Monitor Inn is about half of that figure.
