Water risk in Vilnius
Lithuania · Lithuania basin
Overall water risk
Vilnius sits in the Lithuania basin. Its overall water-risk level is elevated. This address sits in a moderately water-stressed basin with rising exposure across one or two dimensions. Data sourced from WRI Aqueduct 4.0 + Copernicus EDO + Eurostat.
Drought
Periodic drought conditions appear in dry years. Summer rainfall deficits of 20%+ have been recorded in several recent years.
Flooding
Low flood exposure given local elevation and drainage. Re-check after major infrastructure changes.
Water stress
Basin-level water stress is high — withdrawals from this basin are large relative to renewable supply, putting the system under structural pressure.
Tap water & sanitation
Country-level water network coverage is below 85%, indicating a significant population on private or untreated sources where quality is harder to monitor.
The 2050 outlook
Climate models project water stress in the Lithuania basin to hold roughly steady through 2050 under both mid- and high-emissions scenarios. The full report puts an exact figure on the 30-year trajectory for your address.
