At least where I live (NYC) I really don't think water supply is a major issue, unless you live in an apartment building greater than 6 stories tall.  You see, NYCs water isn't pumped, it's pure gravity feed - kinda interesting.  The head pressure is enough to get water up to the 5-6th floor - usually building greater than 4 stories have a rooftop water that that THEY do pump to, but your average 'house' on the lower levels?  The water is pure gravity, and if THAT ever fails
