System facts

System ID (PWSID): AZ0405005
System type: Community Water System
Population served: 20,600
Service connections: 8,152
Ownership: local government
Water source: groundwater (wells)

SAFFORD CITY OF is one of 67 community water systems in Arizona in the 10,001 to 100,000 people size category, serving 20,600 people from groundwater.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 67 entries between 1980 and 2023, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2023.

The record involves volatile organic chemicals, inorganic chemicals, and the Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule.
