I keep running out of water. Once I get a city growing, I've exhausted all of the water the level has. Any suggestions?

I'm not 100% sure, but I think having a water pump ( not the tower ) in a city with water ( river or ocean ) in it you won't run out of water.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

sewage treatment plants help, the more upgraded it is the more water you'll get and the faster the water will refill around it too

    As they said... I use to survive with towers until the sewage treatment plant "generate" water (it needs time), after that the water pump near the the treatment plant and all the water you'll need is here. Here is an example of one of my cities:

    Note:  Co-location of the Water Pumping station next to the sewage plant requires that you destroy the default generic water pump that is put there and build exclusively water filtration pumps.

     

    It costs a bit more, and the filtration pumps are a little bit bigger but it is well worth the never ending cycle of water you get out of it.

    Not necessary if you take care of not putting the water infraestructure near the polluted water. In the image above is not perhaps the best example, but I didn't care because over the time the area was being cleaned out. I usually don't put this in that position, but after an accident with my dump you can see what happens in the area
