Crusty faucets, rust stains or a funny taste in Oakdale? We test first to find out which one you’re dealing with.
Oakdale calls itself the Cowboy Capital of the World, and a lot of the homes we visit out here sit on ranch land, not city lots. That matters, because Oakdale-area water comes from three different places. In town, the City of Oakdale runs seven wells; its 2025 report puts hardness at 89 ppm (parts per million) on average (54–123 ppm), which is moderate. Some rural tracts are served by Oakdale Irrigation District’s rural water system, which reports harder water: 141 mg/L on average, up to 185. And many ranch properties are on private wells that only the owner tests.
The City of Oakdale’s report also shows a low chlorine residual (about 0.38 ppm), nitrate averaging 2.58 ppm and arsenic around 2.2 ppb. OID’s rural system reported nitrate averaging 5.47 mg/L. On private wells we test for more, including iron, manganese, nitrate and bacteria.
