Answers:
Arsenic is more common in water sources that draw from wells. If your water source is the city, the contaminants come from everything in between the water source and your home, but arsenic is usually not one of those contaminants.

An activated carbon filter like your Brita should do a decent job of removing trace arsenic, but if you suspect the levels are unusually high, you should consult a specialist to see which filter is right for you...they might prescribe something like a reverse osmosis or undersink multi-stage filter. If you stick with the Brita, be sure to change it religiously.
