I'm not a PWSA customer, I live outside of the city, but PWSA bills are a recurring topic here in /r/pittsburgh and in local media.

This sounds about right, unfortunately. Appears to match the rates on the PWSA website.

According to this PublicSource article from last year the average PWSA bill is over $100 per month, and over time it's only expected to get worse.

Also not a PWSA customer, and mine bill separately (sewer based on water usage though).

For comparison, I pay approx $300/quarterly for both bills combined, and my last quarterly usage was 13k gallons. So call it $100/month for 4k+ gallons/month. This is for a 4-6 person household, no pool or anything crazy just bathing, washing clothes/dishes and cooking/drinking.

2 person household, no pool/ other crazy water usage, bill is $120/month because our water main coming in is an 1” or whatever, crazy large even for our size house.

I miss nc, our water bill was $25-30, the “expensive” quarterly sewer bills were $60. 😭
