Local Notes for Jersey City
Jersey City Municipal Utilities Authority (system operated under contract by SUEZ, now Veolia), which supplies Jersey City, reports hardness of 84-113 ppm as CaCO3 (moderately hard), per the city's posted water quality report. 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.
