Flint Drinking Water Overview

Population: ~100,000 | Source: Lake Huron via Great Lakes Water Authority (restored)

Flint became the national symbol of water infrastructure failure when a 2014 switch to Flint River water without proper corrosion control caused massive lead contamination. The city has since returned to Great Lakes water and replaced over 10,000 lead service lines. While water quality has improved significantly, rebuilding public trust remains an ongoing challenge.
