We have had a water softener for the past 35 years, 3 houses up north and we did install one here. The water here is hard, a lot of limestone, but if you don't mind it it is not a problem or dangerous. We just like soft water.
Also, if you're at all handy, you can install one yourself. They sell them at most places that sell appliances: Home Depot, Lowes, Sears, etc.
