    Where does your city rate?

    I know this article is old, but I saw it for the first time today. I was glad to see my city near the top of a list that doesn't involve murders or STD rates.

    I guess our city is too small - but Bethlehem has very clean water. In fact, there was a big stink about Coke using our reservoir water for bottled water a few years back.

    That being said - we still have a water filtration container in the fridge and buy bottled water to take to work.

    Of course, I don't actually live inside the city limits, but I'd wager it comes from the same (or similar) sources. I have a filter pitcher but don't hesitate to drink from the tap if I've forgotten to fill it.

    Which really surprises me. I thought we were top 3 for sure. Our tap water is by far the best tasting water one could ask for out of the tap.

    Philly is in the middle of the pack... I am very surprised... I would have guessed in the bottom 10 of the worst...
