How we score a Clermont neighborhood

No agency publishes testing per subdivision — it is published per public water system. So the score is a documented model, not a measurement:

  1. 1Start from the serving utility's own published baseline (hardness plus disinfection-byproduct load from its most recent Consumer Confidence Report).
  2. 2Add for plumbing era: +8 for pre-1960 housing stock, +4 for 1960s-80s, +2 for 1990s-2000s, +0 for 2010 and newer.
  3. 3Add for service-zone position: +6 where the subdivision sits at the end of long distribution mains (newer master-planned build-outs), +3 for the oldest downtown mains.
  4. 4Add for local sources: +12 private or community well, +9 airport/GOAA PFAS influence area, +7 industrial adjacency, +3 golf-corridor irrigation, +2 lakefront shallow-well and iron staining.
  5. 5Clamp to 30-95, then map to low / moderate / high. Wells get chlorine scored near zero — nothing is disinfecting that water at all.

Where the Clermont community names come from

Clermont publishes no official neighborhood map, so these are the recognized subdivision and community names used by the city, USPS mail routes, and local listings.

Data compiled from Clermont Consumer Confidence Reports and EPA ECHO monitoring. Neighborhood-level readings are estimates based on service zone, plumbing age, and source blending; a free on-site test provides exact numbers for your address.

1. Your main concern

Straight answers

Before you call anyone in Clermont.

Need is the wrong word: your Clermont utility delivers water that meets every enforceable EPA limit. Filtration is about the things those limits don't cover — hardness that scales your fixtures and water heater, chlorine taste and smell, and disinfection byproducts that sit above the stricter (non-enforceable) EWG health guideline. Legal water and water you enjoy drinking aren't the same standard.
