City of Huntington Park water: the only rates we found are the City's posted 2017 rates, listed for 2+ unit and commercial accounts: a fixed monthly water meter charge of $6.35 for a 5/8-inch meter plus a consumption charge of $2.54. The City's page lists no separate single-family rate, does not name the unit and may be out of date, so treat the water line as a rough estimate.
