As for us, we drink the tap water, unfiltered, and it is probably not the greatest tasting water, but certainly drinkable. For more info: (the source is .... w.districtgov.org/departments/Utilities/utilities.aspx)

North Sumter County Utility Dependent District (NSCUDD) services approximately 46,138 residents.

North Sumter Utility (NSU) and Villages Water Conservation Authority (VWCA) services Districts #5, #6, #7 and #8 and a portion of District #9

NSU comprises 229 miles of potable water mains, 172 miles of sanitary sewer mains, 33 miles of sanitary force mains, 4306 manholes, 30 lift stations.

VWCA (irrigation only) comprises of 244 miles of Non-Potable water mains and hosts 1972 fire hydrants.
This is correct. Depends on where you are.
