    Depends on where you are.

    Some cities have problems with contamination from fracking or earthquakes or chemical/toxic spills.

    If there ever is a danger, the city will alert people to not drink the water (in some cases, not touch it, but wash and brush teeth and drink bottled water.)

    Unless otherwise specified, though, tap water is safe in the US.

    the united states add chemicals to the water to make it safe for us to drink. if the state or town where you live has some kind of water problem such as Toledo when they had undrinkable water because of algae your state/town would inform you to don't drink it until they say it is safe to drink.
