I just picked this up but am having trouble understanding how to get started. I've put almost an hour into it and still don't know how to set up the water and electric properly.

Do you have tutorials on? If not I highly recommend them, but basically for electricity you need either a coal power plant or wind turbine to start (I suggest wind turbine since it is clean energy and doesn't pollute) there are benefits to both and negatives to both, coal power plants cost more and pollute but wind turbines output a lot less power. So once you pick one place it down, Then put your roads down (I suggest putting the roads to the left and right, left for residents and right for the commercial district.) once you have your roads down you need to put down your power lines, power lines connect your power source to your citizens/town, place the first powerline near your power source and then go go around the roads (Not directly next to the roads you need space to build buildings) All buildings require electricity and water. Once that is done you need to get water, to do this you'll need a water pumping station (for clean water) and a water draining station (for dirty water) the draining station DOES POLLUTE, so you need to put the draining station far away from the pumping station, or make it so the current pushes the pollution away. once you put both down by the water, you need to connect them with pipes, put a pipe down ontop of both stations, and then connect them together, once they're connected via the pipes make it so the pipes are around the grid area beside your roads (this grid area is where your buildings/houses will go) once you have your pipes on all the grids, and you have your power lines around the grid (grid = the squares btw) you're ready to build your city, click the red/blue/green grid (to the right of the road button) and start one side of the road as the residential area, and use the other for the commercial area. After you've done this you should start working on an industrial area and just expanding your city. I highly suggest you put on the tutorials because they helped me immensely.
