Yes I know it does evaporate into thin air but it comes back when the air gets thick.
Read this study on the water cycle. The water cycle involves a lot more than just simple evaporation and condensation.

Page 4 in this document will provide you with information on how anthropogenic activites disturb the water cycle. Urban sprawl can be put almost near the top of your list. This document is similar to the studies I did with my professor a few years ago. Very interesting stuff!
