Tap water situation

The safety of tap water in the United States is generally high, with water quality typically meeting or exceeding standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). However, given the country's size, water quality can vary significantly by region and even within cities. In general, major urban areas have sophisticated water treatment facilities, but certain rural areas may experience challenges. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is the primary government body responsible for regulating and ensuring the safety of the nation's tap water.
