Contamination score

Higher = more contaminated vs. other cities.

The Town of Aberdeen's municipal water system had no drinking water violations in 2025 and meets federal and state requirements. Separately, a legacy EPA Superfund site — the Aberdeen Contaminated Ground Water site east of US Highway 1 — resulted from a former metal-parts manufacturer's use of a trichloroethene (TCE) degreasing vat and contaminated groundwater in private wells in the surrounding area, distinct from the town's public supply.
