I generally keep some water in my tank for emergencies and fill up near or where I’m going to camp. And I don’t use a filter. I’ve used the local water, whether on foot or in an RV, for 50 years and never once gotten sick from it. The only time I’ve seen anyone sick was backpacking. They would wash their dishes with soap, and water being critical backpacking, they cut corners rinsing the soap off. So I’m convinced the water didn’t make them sick, the residual soap did.
That said, I saw some posts and pictures of water back east, PA sticks in my mind, that looked so bad no one in their right mind would drink it. In that case even I would be looking at bottled water.
