The bill was for 82,000 gallons. The next one will be a lot higher... I don't know when the leak began, but it seems to be losing over 1,000 gallons/day now.
The house was built in the late '50s, but I know the main was replaced within the last 20 years. It was done along with the sewer, so there's a good chance it's pretty deep.
My thanks to everyone for the suggestions and ideas.
