Consider the following definitions and criteria:

• A community tap is a water faucet located in a public space, from which occupants carry water to the dwelling using buckets or other containers.
• "Another dwelling" means that the occupants get water through a neighbor who has piped water, thy transport the water by carrying it.
• The option "a river, stream, or lake" applies when the occupants get the liquid from these places and carry it in containers to the dwelling.
• The option "it is piped-in" applies when a water truck brings the water to the dwelling or near it, depositing the water in basins or barrels where the occupants take it with buckets, pails, or other containers.
