Sugar Land — Main System
2025 report; each row keeps its measurement year
Main System only. River Park, Greatwood and New Territory have separate systems and results. City's undated water-quality page gives Main System range 35–280 ppm (2.0–16.4 gpg). Do not treat this broader range as 2025 report range.

More about your local water
What this means for your home
The 2025 report lists moderately hard results for Main and River Park, a soft result for New Territory, and a dated 2024 moderately hard result for Greatwood. Broader undated city guidance can span more categories; it is not substituted for these dated measurements.
A useful local question
Why can't I use one Sugar Land hardness number?
The City operates four separately reported systems. The latest listed measurements differ, and source blends can change. Match the system on your bill and measure current incoming hardness before setting a softener.
Sources and methodology
We keep each utility’s results separate, show the reported sample year, and distinguish averages, maxima and tap-sampling percentiles. Hardness classifications use USGS ranges. Missing data stays unknown.
