A legal limit is an enforceable standard, set by the EPA under the Safe Drinking Water Act. Limits weigh health research together with the cost and feasibility of treatment. A health guideline is published by public-health sources and based on health research alone. A utility can meet every legal limit and still be above a published health guideline.

The Water Scores are 33325 (76), 33317 (92) and 33328 (92). A score describes the utility's public test results for that ZIP code, not the water at any one tap (EPA SDWA, EPA UCMR and Florida DEP data, 2018-2025).
Arsenic (above its guideline in 2 of 3 utilities, up to 213 times), Bromodichloromethane (above its guideline in 1 of 3 utilities, up to 125 times) and Chloroform (above its guideline in 1 of 3 utilities, up to 43 times). Source: EPA SDWA, EPA UCMR and Florida DEP data, 2018-2025.

The score starts at 100. It goes down 8 for each contaminant above a cited health guideline whose source states a cancer basis, 5 for each other contaminant above its cited guideline, 5 for each of PFOA and PFOS averaging above the 4.0 ppt limit in EPA's 2024 PFAS rule, 10 for each contaminant whose average of all samples is above EPA's legal limit (instead of its guideline step), and 1 for each contaminant with a cited cancer-based guideline that is detected below it. Only guidelines with a cited document count. The lowest score is 5. Higher is better.
