Abstract
Based on demographic and economic information, this research paper evaluates a nonparametric comparison of the per capita yearly economic needs for water supply of two international regions conformed by 100 cities and/or communities (localities) along the border of United States and Mexico, from which 57 are located on the American side and 43 on the Mexican side; part of the discrepancy exhibited by both borders about the per capita yearly economic needs for water supply is explained as a reflection of the demographic-gap among adjacent localities of the common border region; we present confirmatory evidence of discrepancies. The per capita yearly economic needs estimate should be considered in order to increase the sustainability for water supply. The United States-Mexico border in terms of water supply needs should be interpreted as an issue of national security. If the accelerated rate of population growth on both sides of the border between United States and Mxico continues including the area around the water river basins, this could produce a dramatic scenery in the future (for year2020): An expected percentage of population growth of 108 % accompanied with a long-term economic needs volume of $ 3,393,870,000.00
