Is the water from Crazy Water Wells still safe to drink?

Yes, and tested. Mineral Wells' famous Crazy Water Well No. 4 is tested monthly by TCEQ. Latest report (April 2026) showed normal mineral content, no contamination. The 'crazy' designation is folklore from the 1880s, not a regulatory category.
