As of 2020, nearly 72 percent of Angola's urban population used at least basic water drinking services. Among Angolans living in rural areas, access to drinking water from an improved source was significantly more limited, with the coverage reaching only 28 percent of the population. Compared to 2015, access to drinking water in the country slightly improved.
