Water Supply Practical

Your water provider changes the Hunt County answer

Hunt County Home & Property

A Greenville address, a small-town system, and a rural water group may draw from different sources. TWDB's January 2024 summary puts Hunt County in Region D. It also lists the local utilities used in the plan.

The plan asks what may happen if the worst past drought returns. It does not promise what will come from the tap today. Use TWDB's Water Service Boundary Viewer to find the likely provider. Then ask that provider about current supply, limits, and service for the exact lot. A private well needs its own record and water test.
