I'm assuming you've never been to the west!

Most of the Southwestern United States is a harsh, desert and mountain area. Water is scarce and traveling was dangerous, living there even more dangerous. A constant source of water, albeit, a spring, a lake, or a river was vital for civilization to occur. Towns that popped up far from water had to either have it pumped in via pipeline or hauled in via railroad or wagon!
