The water you drink here in the Villages depends on where you live. Up north, excellent water, historic side, City of Lady Lake water, Fruitland Park Villages, Fruitland Park City Water, Wildwood part of the Villages, City of Wildwood water, Leesburg portion of the Villages uses City of Leesburg water. Each municipality treats there water to government standards, but the water itself comes from various sources and places where mineral content is different, therefore the water tastes different. All are chlorinated most have added fluoride. You get a mailed water quality statement every year listing everything in your areas water which is required by the federal government, read it and you'll know exactly what you're drinking.
