How safe is the water that flows out of your tap? The answer very much depends on where you live.
It’s now easier than ever for consumers to find out what’s in their tap water. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) today released the results of a three-year investigation of municipal water supplies across the U.S.
The research and advocacy group looked at water quality tests performed by water utilities since 2004 and created an extensive database that contains info on the contaminants found in 48,000 communities in 45 states.
EWG also rated 100 big city (population over 250,000) water utilities. Below are the top and bottom results.
Cities with the best water:
- Arlington, TX
- Providence, RI
- Fort Worth, TX
- Charleston, SC
- Boston, MA
- Honolulu, HI
- Austin, TX
- Fairfax County, VA

Cities with the worst water:

Pamela Sabin’s “Hugs instead of Handshakes Campaign”
I’ve started a new campaign….”Hugs instead of Handshakes”!
Your hands spread the colds and flu, viral and bacterial. So instead of shaking someone’s hand when you meet them …just give them a big ole’ HUG. It opens everyone’s hearts and it feels great! Here’s sending everyone a huge hug!
