Urban water security risks are confounded by inequities in economic opportunity, risk exposure and human well-being  . Water scarcity is felt more acutely among low-income compared with high-income populations , and scarcity on top of inequities and political instability can lead to security issues, for example, conflict between different water users , particularly when road infrastructures and access to water are limited . Scarcity risks may also be exacerbated by human and ecosystem needs in water-short years . Finally, growing populations along with migration into water scarce regions can exacerbate water security issues .
