Of the 16 Metrowater distribution zones in the city, Kilpauk and Choolaimedu seem to be the thirstiest. On a typical day, the water demand in these two areas is 186 Million Litres per Day (MLD) and 190 MLD, respectively. The two areas together account for over half of all consumption in Chennai. The lowest water consumption is in Ekattuthangal with a requirement of just 7 MLD.

Experts conclude that density of population could be one reason for high consumption. Choolaimedu is a residential hub that is well connected to T Nagar, Mount Road and Kodambakkam. Experts say that more than even Mylapore and Mandaveli, Choolaimedu is now the residential heart of the city with high rises and apartments packed together.
