The ZIP codes associated with Hominy have a median household income of $46,026 and about 4,031 residents live in those ZIP codes (Census; not the number of people this system supplies). Approximately 82% of housing stock was built before 1986, which increases the likelihood of lead service lines and older plumbing.

Environmental Justice Note: On average, 100% of census tracts in the counties mapped to this service area are designated disadvantaged by the federal Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST, 2022 version). Communities with higher disadvantaged populations often face disproportionate environmental and health burdens, including aging water infrastructure and limited resources for remediation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I use a water filter? ▼

Is there lead in Hominy's water? ▼
The reported 90th-percentile lead result is below the laboratory reporting limit, not a measured zero; EPA's health goal for lead is zero. This is at or below the EPA lead action level, which triggers system action and is not a safe level; the EPA health goal for lead is zero.
What is the demographic profile of the ZIP codes associated with Hominy? ▼
The ZIP codes mapped to Hominy have a median household income of $46,026 (Census ZIP-code estimate). In CEJST data, 100% of census tracts in the counties mapped to this area are designated disadvantaged (average across mapped ZIP codes), which may indicate greater vulnerability to environmental health risks.
Where does Hominy get its water? ▼
Hominy's water is drawn from rivers, lakes, or reservoirs.
