Shortcoming associated with past water demand studies are evaluated. To overcome these shortcomings, pooled, time series, cross section data from ‐6, Sweden, are used in an ordinary Least squares analysis to estimate the demand for residential water. Elasticities for five variables, including price and income, are estimated. An approach for the conduct of future water demand studies is suggested.
