Having clean water is such a linchpin of modern life.

Worrying about obtaining it, staying safe, your health, your kid's health, family member's health.

Yeah that's going to take a huge toll.

I'm sure many municipalities in the US offer it but if you live in New York City, the city is happy to ship you a kit to check the lead levels in your residence for free. There's even a map that shows you where the lead-based water lines are. https://www1.nyc.gov/site/dep/water/monitoring-for-lead.page
