If you drink your water from the tap, an online magazine says you are drinking some of the best water in the country.

Best Life Magazine gave Baltimore a clean water score of 90.58, which is higher than similar cities like Philadelphia, Orlando, and New Orleans. The Maryland city was also ranked the highest in the mid-Atlantic and Northeastern regions. 

Out of the 200 biggest cities in America, Baltimore was number 10 on the list!

To make the list, cities had to have water that tastes good and has low levels of contamination. The information came from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Environmental Working Group, and the American Water Works Association.
