It’s not necessarily an infrastructure thing impacting safety, but sometimes a water source thing effecting flavour and temperature.
Toronto is on the north shore of Lake Ontario and has amazing tap water, Kingston is 200km east also on the north shore of Lake Ontario and has horrible tasting tap water. The difference is that Toronto is next to a deep drop off in the lake, whereas Kingston is on a huge shallow section of the lake where the water doesn’t flow nearly as much. Both are perfectly safe to drink but in Kingston they have to add more chlorine / treatment chemicals which add an off taste to the water, plus in Kingston the water comes out of the tap much warmer in the summer.
