Unless you're on a mountain, I'd be testing that water pretty often if you're near any significant agriculture.

Let the town pay for it, that's part of what taxes are for

How would you define mountain? Sounds like a stupid question, but most of VT could be considered mountainous.

If you're in the valley, you're not on the mountain.

Basically, if you're tapping your water well above where any contaminants can get in (livestock, farming, industry, etc...) odds are you're drawing clean, tasty water.

If there's anything "nasty" uphill of you, contamination can become an issue.
