Living in Lake Harbor, FL: what to set up and who to call

Lake Harbor has no town government of its own, so Palm Beach County runs its elections and most services, and its children attend Palm Beach County School District. Tap water in Lake Harbor comes from the City of Clewiston water system, which has a clean five-year EPA record (about 20% of systems its size had a health-based violation) and a latest lead result of 0.3 ppb.

Water comes from City of Clewiston water system

The City of Clewiston water system supplies Lake Harbor: about 95% of residents live in its service area.

WTP as seller) and serves 9,643 people in all.

No health-based violations reported to EPA in the five years to October 2026, like 80% of the 5,012 systems serving 3,301–10,000 people.
