Isn't this why California can't use well water and they're always
fighting over more water from neighboring states? Their own well
water table is heavily salted.

That's a pretty broad statement: California is a very big state.
There's a whole lot of California other than the Southern portion,
to which I imagine you are referring. Most of Northern California
uses wells very "well". Just about everyone up here has a well.
And even those who have city water use well water as all city
water comes from deep wells. It's very good water, too.

As for SoCal, there are a great many very complicated reasons
for their water problems. One simple reason is too many people
in what is essentially a desert. Not only fighting with neighboring
states, but within the state: ask the people in Owens Valley or
at Mono Lake about that! (Read Cadillac Desert)

Oh well enough of that, it's a nice cool morning, after a very hot
summer and I am going to weed and deadhead.
