Declining, a typical pace among declining counties
2.1ft/decade

Washington Parish, LA, 40 miles from Lamar County, is the closest county with a qualifying well, and its water table is declining at a typical pace for a declining county.

No well inside Lamar County clears this site's 15-year qualifying bar, so this is the closest real reading, not a measurement of Lamar County's own aquifer. Worth checking your own well's depth log against it rather than assuming it matches. See Washington Parish, LA'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.
