0.7ft/decade

Platte County, MO, 44 miles from Douglas County, is the closest county with a qualifying well, and its water table is declining, slower than most declining counties.

No well inside Douglas County clears this site's 15-year qualifying bar, so this is the closest real reading, not a measurement of Douglas County's own aquifer. Worth checking your own well's depth log against it rather than assuming it matches. See Platte County, MO's full page. See the no-data guide for why a county this close to a qualifying well still doesn't get its own number.
