Usually cities use groundwater that has been naturally filtered for years. Then it goes to a processing plant with reverse osmosis and fancy pants filters.
Then to your tap. It's not rainwater!
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1300506The Hetch Hetchy watershed, an area located in Yosemite National Park, provides approximately 85% of San Francisco's total water needs. Spring snowmelt runs down the Tuolumne River and fills Hetch Hetchy, the largest reservoir in the SFPUC system. This surface water in the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir is treated, but not filtered because it is of such high quality [ link to sfwater.org]
