Katulampa Village has a variety of potential water resources with relatively good quality. The existence of a variety of water provides an alternative to the community to use clean water. With the increasing number of population and water needs on the one hand, while on the other hand the quantity and quality of water resources is relatively decreasing, the optimal management of water resources to meet various community needs is increasingly important. The objectives of this study are to identify the patterns of community water consumption in the Katulampa Village, to estimate household expenditure for water consumption, and to estimate the value of household willingness to pay (WTP) for water. This research uses descriptive analysis, expenditure analysis method, and contingent valuation method. The results indicated that households in the Katulampa Village consume on average 23.9 m 3 /month, which comes from various water sources, namely PDAM water, wells, rivers, springs, and seepage water. Bottled drinking water (bottled water) and refilled water are consumed by communities specially to meet the needs of some drinking water. The proportion of expenditure for consumption of bottled water and refill water were relatively low compared to the average income of the people inside and outside Griya Katulampa Housing (GKH). Household expenditure for bottled water and refilled water is relatively high. The estimated average WTP for improved PDAM piped water is Rp 4,414/m 3 . Seepage water is still consumed by some people, although its use is limited to non-consumption activities.
