Yes, the deeper you are (be it in air, water or any medium) increases as you go deeper, as there is a column of mass pressing down on you, toward the centre of gravity for the earth.
The pressure at sea level (average) is 1 bar, which is 100,000 kilopascals!
(so, and inflated tire will have a pressure relative to that of 60 or so pascals. Tiny, eh?)

Why is density of water more in deep water?
The density of water increases with depth due to the increase in pressure. As water molecules are packed closer together under high pressure, the density of water increases. Therefore, in deep water where the pressure is higher, the density of water is also higher.
What is the relationship between water depth and pressure?
Pressure and depth are related in that pressure is proportional to depth. The equation to find pressure at a certain depth is p=dgh, where p is the pressure, d is the density, g is the acceleration of gravity and h is the depth.
Why does velocity of water change with depth?
The primary change is of pressure, increasing at 1 Bar per 10 metres of depth; but in the oceans, the temperature and salinity also alter in subtle ways.
How does fluid pressure change with depth?
Pressure changes very easily. The deeper that you go there is more pressure. For example, when you dive into the ocean, there is not only a whole sky-worth of air pushing down on you, but you are also being pressured by the tons of water above you. On the flipside, when you travel to a greater altitude, pressure decreases. For exapmle, when you climb a mountian, there is less air above you pushing down on you then there is on sealevel.
What happen to pressure as you go down to the bottom of the sea?
The pressure increases by the weight of water per sq cm above you. That is, by 1 gram per square centimeter, per centimeter extra depth you go. The density of water is 1 gram per cubic cm (ie 1 gm per sq cm area per cm depth).
How does water pressure vary with depth?
Water pressure increases as depth increases.
True or false pressure increases as depth increases?
Yes, pressure does increase as your depth increases in the water
What happens to water pressure as you increase depth?
as water depth increases then so does the water pressure
Water pressure increases as depth increases?
It's true
What do water pressure increases as?
Water pressure increases with depth, as you go deeper there is more water above weighing down on you.
The hydrostatic pressure varies with water depth?
Hydrostatic pressure increases by the density of the substance multiplied by gravitational constant and depth.
Does water pressure increases depth increases?
Yes, it does. The more you advance towards the bottom of the ocean, the more the water pressure increases. Which is why you implode before reaching the bottom.
How do depth and temperature affect pressure?
Depth and temperature affect pressure by increasing the pressure as the depth increases. As depth increases, temperature often falls.
Why is density of water more in deep water?
The density of water increases with depth due to the increase in pressure. As water molecules are packed closer together under high pressure, the density of water increases. Therefore, in deep water where the pressure is higher, the density of water is also higher.
Does depth affect water resistance?
Resistance of water is probably defined as pressure being applied by water on objects and as it's stated in fluid mechanics books pressure increases as height decreases or depth increases, so simply the answer is "yes".
How thick should concrete walls be to hold 10000 gallons of water?
It depends on the depth of the water. The hydrostatic pressure increases with depth.
What happens to water pressure if salt is added?
Salt water has a higher density, so the pressure at a given depth increases.
