Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW), which supplies Cincinnati, reports hardness of about 125 mg/L (7 gpg) from the Miller plant (Ohio River) and about 138 mg/L (8 gpg) from the Bolton plant (groundwater), per GCWW's annual report (moderately hard). Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
