It's important to differentiate between water that doesn't taste very good,
and water that is actually *bad*, meaning you shouldn't be drinking it.
It's not unusual for the water to be fine from a health standpoint, but to
have an unpleasant taste. That's how it is in Montpelier (Vermont). I'm
not very fond of the water in Waterbury either, but my well water here at
home is just fine to me.
