Default Water well question

The price I mentioned is inclusive of the well casing and deepwell pump..

The guy up the road, here in W. Washington, went down about 130 ft for good
water and paid about $10,000.. That's about 77 a ft.. However if the water
had come in at a shallower depth he would still have to pay a couple
thousand just for the set up, plus footage...

I use to hang out at a bar where some well drillers would stop in after
work.. I would sometimes hear comments about "can't make any money until we
get down to 100 ft...". Thus an incentive to drill deeper wells.
