You can contact your municipal water supplier directly (same people you pay your water bill to, or if you are in an apartment, generally the city has a water authority). They can easily do a spot test (usually using a hose connection outside the building) with chlorine strips or a chlorine meter. Sometimes there is a temporary surge due to an issue atthe water treatment plant, but it shouldn't last more than a day or two. If it is high longer than that, they may not be aware of the issue. Sometimes they will need to flush the water main to fix it.
