I just discovered the electronic access to your bill. I'm going to have to hunt around for a paper bill so I can sign up. Utility Billing Online Overview (http://www.townofcary.org/depts/fndept/utilitybilling/uboverview.htm - broken link)
I know my paper bill did have the total number of gallons and somewhere hidden on the bill was the number of days in the month, so a little math could get the gallons/day. But to me that wasn't the most confusing part. The most confusing part is the weird reverse calendar they use for the graph, so the bar on the left is the most recent month and the bar on the right is the same month last year. I would expect the reverse and I have to stare at it to interpret it every time I get a bill.
The online account can also give you a great graph view since you started the account. As the water fees change, its hard from just the $ to tell how actual usage has changed over time.
The online account can show you this so you can compare month to month or year to year.
Thanks for the information everyone. I signed up on the website but when I tried to login, I keep getting this weird message! Has anyone else had this problem?

How can I compare our household water use to the Cary average? I don't understand "where" exactly we fit in on our conservation efforts?
Has the Town of Cary published numbers on average household use? or individual use? I would like to know how well, or how poorly, we are doing.
