Mobile + Baldwin County, Alabama

Every public water system on the Gulf Coast, compared

There are 24 public water systems serving these two counties. We pulled what the EPA and the Environmental Working Group publish about each one — contaminants above health guidelines, and the full federal compliance record — and put it in one place. It is not on any utility’s website in this form.

Skip the averages — test your own tap

System-wide readings tell you what leaves the plant. A free in-home test tells you what arrives at your kitchen sink.

Why some rows are blank

A blank row means the EWG tap-water database has no contaminant profile for that system — usually because it is small enough that its sampling results have not been compiled. It is not a claim that the water is clean, and it is not a claim that it is not. We would rather show you the gap than fill it with something we made up. Every one of those systems still has an EPA record you can look up, and a free in-home test answers the question directly.

The honest answer

Averages describe a system. A test describes your house.

Pipe material, plumbing age and distance from the plant all change what arrives at your tap. That is why we start with a reading rather than a recommendation.
