The verdict

Hialeah, City Of sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (76), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is large (238,000; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is only 0% - almost all of this trail is monitoring or reporting. UCMR5 detected 11 PFAS compounds (upper-third PFAS panel (> 4 compounds)).
