Yeah. Lead is extremely high here. I didn't read the article but part of the problem is they switched to some new water treatment chemical that made the lead leech out of the pipes even faster. The bad pipes are mostly between the street and house, so it's hard to fix.

We've had our water tested, and our house is fine. But we know people with very high levels of lead in their water. We filter our drinking water anyway.
