The verdict

Dallas, Town Of sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (347), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is large (8,125; larger served population (> 3,309)), so household exposure scale sits behind the violation mix. Health-based share is 16% (middle-third health share (≤ 23%)). UCMR5 detected 6 PFAS compounds (upper-third PFAS panel (> 4 compounds)).
