<p>The paper represents an analysis of Romania’s possibilities of achieving Objective 11 of the 2030 Sustainable Development Strategy, entitled “Sustainable Cities and Communities”. In order to determine the possibilities to achieve the objective, the average evolution rate method was used to predict the evolution of the indicator “share of the population served by the public water supply system” until 2030.
