About this area's water
Did you know
- Kent's tap water was named Best Tasting Municipality Water at the 1995 Berkeley Springs International Water Tasting, and Mayor Kathleen Chandler carried it onto the March 3 episode of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
- Kent's water has earned six awards at Berkeley Springs since it first entered in 1995, including first-, second- and third-place honors, most recently fifth place in the municipal category in 2011.
- Kent sits on the Cuyahoga River but does not drink it — the city draws entirely from the Breakneck Creek Wellfield in a buried valley aquifer, and one well, No. 13, is a rock well tapping a water-bearing sandstone…
- The plant softens hard water aggressively: raw water hardness averaged 304 mg/l in 2025 and came out of the tap at 101 mg/l.
- Kent keeps an emergency pipe connection to the City of Ravenna that it typically uses only one or two days a year — 917,000 gallons over three days in 2023, and not a single gallon in 2025.

Mostly estimated. Only 13% of these days come from a gauge standing inside 44240 (Kent) - the rest are worked out from the nearest gauges around it, so read them as close estimates rather than readings.
48,865 days of records, 1893-01-01 to 2026-10-29. Source: NOAA NCEI GHCN-Daily, 3,240 gauges in and around Ohio. A day is "gauged" when a gauge standing inside the boundary reported it, and the value is the mean of those gauges. Otherwise it is interpolated by inverse distance from every gauge reporting within 50 miles. Nothing is carried forward, back-filled or smoothed. Against NOAA nClimDiv county monthly precipitation over 136,848 complete county-months (checked 2026-10-31): correlation 0.9515, median absolute difference 0.217 in a month. Built 2026-10-31 from the Cracked Buckeye precipitation archive. Snow is the softer number — snowfall is measured by hand with a ruler, no agency publishes a gridded county snowfall series, and blowing snow defeats every observer.
