Method: medians computed from Wellogic records (water-supply wells only (household, irrigation, industrial, Type I/II/III public supply) — heat-pump, test and unclassified wells excluded; depths 0–5,000 ft). Cost estimate applies published per-foot ranges (checked 2026-06-11) to the local median depth — full methodology & sources.
