Poughkeepsie is served by more than one water system: the city supply, the Townwide Water District, and private wells on the outskirts. That means the answer to 'what treatment do I need' depends on which one you're on.
The city's own infrastructure is old, and inside the house, pre-1986 lead solder does the rest. A filter certified for lead removal at the kitchen tap is a reasonable, cheap measure. A whole-house system isn't usually the right answer for lead, because the exposure is drinking and cooking water, not the shower.
Private wells on the edges of town commonly run hard, sometimes with iron. That's a different problem with a different fix, a softener and iron removal rather than a lead filter. Treating for the wrong contaminant is the most common waste of money in this trade.

Property Assessment in PoughkeepsieIf it can't wait until morning, call. A dispatcher answers and gives you an arrival window.
The utility meets its regulated standards, and it publishes an annual water quality report you can read. The remaining risk in older homes is the plumbing inside the house, not the water leaving the plant. A test of your own tap settles it.
Only if you have a problem that affects the whole house, sediment, iron staining, sulphur. For taste and lead at the tap, a point-of-use filter under the sink is cheaper and does the job better.
