RIDGEROAD DEVELOPMENT is one of 1,221 community water systems in Iowa in the 500 or fewer people size category, formerly serving 27 people from groundwater.

EPA's federal records list this system as inactive in 2016; the record below is historical.

As of August 1, 2026, its federal record holds 3 entries between 1998 and 2015, all of which EPA lists as closed. Nothing has been added since 2015.
