Summer Water Bills Skyrocket in Kern County | California News
Description
Kern County residents are facing shocking water bill spikes this summer—some bills jumped from $300 to over $600 in just one month. One mom, Jennifer Herrera, can’t find leaks but the cost keeps climbing. Cal Water explains it’s due to their tiered pricing: the more water you use beyond basics, the pricier each gallon gets—with steep hikes once you hit 20,000 gallons monthly. They urge customers to check for hidden leaks, monitor usage, and contact them to review bills. With scorching temps still here, every extra shower or lawn soak adds up fast—watch your wallet.
