abstract: 'Economic and population growth in Mexico City (CDMX) is the main cause
of an increase in water demand against a naturally limited endowment,
which increases the gap between water demand and supply. In a water
scarcity environment, households are facing pressure to maintain their
involvement in the city''s only operating body, the Water System of
Mexico City (SACMEX) total supply. The objective of this work is to
measure the inequality in the distribution of drinking water and water
subsidies between households connected to the public network of CDMX in
order to generate objective indicators of the phenomenon. Having such
information provides a baseline scenario of the problem and allows for
the delineation of a policy covering the minimum levels of well-being in
the supply of drinking water that is appropriate for the most important
city in the country. The method consists of measuring inequality through
continuous variables estimating the Lorenz curve, the Gini coefficient,
the targeting coefficient and elasticity in water consumption and in
water subsidies among households in CDMX. Data comes from a household
survey carried out in 2011, Consumption Habits, Service and Quality of
Water by Household in Mexico City (EHCSCA). Results show that drinking
water and subsidies present a regressive distribution, benefit
high-income households and, to a lesser degree, the poorest households
in the city and highlight the urgency and importance for SACMEX to
redefine its policy on water distribution, fees and subsidies. The
present study''s scope can contribute to the monitoring of the
distribution of drinking water and of subsidies among household groups.
The study justifies that the indicators employed in this work can be
used and are recommended as a valuable tool in water management,
especially in a dynamic environment.'
