Source: Authors’ analysis based on data sources discussed in the text.

Note: HH = household; WS = water source. Regression in first differences. Analysis is at the household level with weights applied so that each community counts equally in the analysis. Community fixed effects where specified. Standard errors clustered by community. * p < 0.1, ** p < 0.05, *** p < 0.01.
