According to a report by Osiris de Leon, "The Diagnosis of Water in the Americas", only 36 out of every 100 households in the Dominican Republic have water inside their homes, and the water does not reach the 95% level of suitability for drinking.

He said that the situation is worrying and that Dominicans have to buy water for their basic requirements, and drink bottled water that often does not reach the required quality either.
