How does Travelers Motor Lodge compare with other water systems in Providence County?

By EPA's size categories, Travelers Motor Lodge is a very small system (500 people or fewer). Providence County has 182 active public water systems. Its population served is well below the county average of 3,535 people per system, and accounts for less than 0.1% of the 643,368 people reported by systems filed under the county. Across Rhode Island, the 465 active systems average 2,508 people each. Nationally, the average active transient non-community water system reports serving 144 people, so Travelers Motor Lodge is about half of that figure.
