    Solution:

    The above statement is true.
    Unlike bore wells dug in villages, wells in towns and cities typically need to be drilled much more profoundly to reach the water. It is true because excessive water use depletes groundwater supplies. Roads in towns and cities are asphalted, and large areas of ground are concreted. Due to the inability of rainwater to replenish groundwater by percolation, the groundwater level continues to drop. Villages have more open soil surface areas and fewer concrete and asphalt roads. As a result, more soil surface area is available for rainwater to seep into the soil and replenish the groundwater quickly.
