Is anybody concerned about water in the southwest/mountain states?

I grew up up mostly in the northeast but lived in Utah from age 16. I now live in South Carolina but am ready to figure out where i want to settle for good and miss living in the west. I have considered New mexico, Colorado or Nebraska but im concerned about the water situation in these states. I recall learning about how dry Utah was but yet people kept piling into the state. Does anyone have infi on just how severe this issue is at the moment, or what the futures may look like? Im in my mid 20s and i feel like in 25 years i might be shooting myself in the foot by not moving to the midwest or back to the northeast.
