Lutz faces a critical environmental threat with a 10.0 hazard score. The Arkla Terra Property is the primary Superfund site nearby. While the government calls the contaminants unspecified hazardous substances, these chemicals can seep into soil or water. In daily life, this means you must be careful about touching local dirt or drinking untreated well water. With 15 dangerous sites within 5 miles, the high density of industrial waste increases the risk of long-term health problems for all local residents.
