Here in Las Vegas (desert climate) per capita usage is commonly stated to be
300 gallons per person per day. That is a water utility planning figure and
includes commercial usage and rather heavy residential irrigation usage. In
most areas of the country, 100 gpd is more common as I recall.

My in-house use measured at the water softener is about 100 gpd for two
people. In the summer my total usage goes up to 2500 gallons per day
including the water used to irrigate a large yard.

If you wanted a large lush yard.... why the hell are you living in a desert?
Quit wasting water.
