Popis:	Weekly water consumption data from 48 households in Kuwait were collected over a period of one year. Based on these data, the average per capita water consumption inside a house in Kuwait was estimated to be in the range 182–2018 l/d/person, with an average of 814 l/d/person. Linear regression and neural network models, fitted to the observed data, suggest dependence of the residential water consumption on the number of bathrooms and rooms in the residence, size of the attached garden, income level of the household, atmospheric temperature, relative humidity, and number of people in the residence.
