Water comes from Greene County Eastern Regional PWS
Greene County Eastern Regional PWS supplies Wilberforce: about 14% of residents live in its service area. About 86% of homes are outside any mapped community water system, most likely on private wells, which EPA doesn’t regulate. It buys treated ground water (EPA lists Xenia City PWS and Greene Co.-Northwest Reg Water as sellers) and serves 4,800 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.
The latest lead result on file, the 90th percentile of homes sampled in Jan–Jun 2026, was 0.0 ppb, below the 15 ppb action level that applied. The highest in five years was 7.4 ppb. Results below detection are reported as 0, so 0 doesn’t mean no lead at any tap.
