About this area's water
Did you know
- Oxford's tap water is genuinely hard - 340 to 380 ppm - and the city has never softened it; the plant now being built will bring roughly 60% of the supply down to about 120 ppm.
- The utility serves more than 22,500 customers, far more than the year-round population, because Miami University is on the system.
- Oxford's wells sit in a federally designated Sole Source Aquifer, but the same shallowness that makes the aquifer productive is why the city's own report calls all of its sources highly susceptible to contamination.
- The city is a claimant in the 3M PFAS class-action settlement, with payouts continuing through 2036, and has already been promised reimbursement of the roughly $6,000 it spent on PFAS testing.
- Oxford pays the full cost of replacing the homeowner's side of a lead service line - the program FAQ answers 'Will I need to reimburse the City? No!'
History5
- early 1990sThe current Oxford Water Treatment Plant was built - with no water softening capability.
- 2024PFAS confirmed in multiple samples at the Seven Mile well field in May 2024 testing, none above regulatory limits; no consistent positive samples at the Four Mile Valley well field.
- 2024City proposes the largest capital improvement plan in its history, $76.44 million for FY2025-2029, headlined by $18.9 million of water treatment plant improvements to soften the water and remove PFAS…
- 2026June 2, 2026: City Council approved a contract with Building Crafts Inc. to construct the new treatment facility - $23,632,340 construction plus $1,167,660 contingency ($24.8 million).
- 2026March 30, 2026: second round of federal PFAS compliance sampling completed; only PFBS and PFOA detected, both far below limits.

Mostly estimated. Only 10% of these days come from a gauge standing inside 45056 (Oxford) - the rest are worked out from the nearest gauges around it, so read them as close estimates rather than readings.
48,224 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.
