What Kind of People Store Water For Emergencies?
The International Bottled Water Association conducted a survey to determine how many people store water in the event of an emergency. The survey, conducted with 1,018 adults in June, identified types of people most likely to store water: a homemaker (57 percent); single parents (57 percent); Hispanic (57 percent); residents of the West (55 percent) and Outer South (48 percent); those with a total annual household income of $15,000 or less (55 percent); females 35 to 54 years of age (49 percent); and females 25 to 34 years of age (49 percent).
