1h Lake vs Lake Nockamixon
Water quality, depth, fish species, and recreation comparison.
1h Lake and Lake Nockamixon both received the same overall water quality grade of D (Poor). Both are in Wisconsin.
1h Lake and Lake Nockamixon are both in Pennsylvania — a same-state head-to-head where the comparison comes down to lake-specific differences in depth, watershed, and monitoring history rather than the broader state-level water-quality regime. The grades are close: 1h Lake (D) and Lake Nockamixon (D) are within one letter of each other on the LakeGrade rubric. The per-parameter sub-grades below will show where the small differences actually live.
With grades this close, the choice between the two lakes turns on non-water-quality factors: depth, fish species, public access, distance from home. The per-lake pages below cover all of those.

Side-by-Side Metrics
| Metric | 1h Lake | Lake Nockamixon |
|---|---|---|
| Overall Grade | D (Poor) | D (Poor) |
| Water Clarity | No data | 4.8 ft |
| Phosphorus | 72 µg/L | No data |
| Chlorophyll-a (Algae) | No data | No data |
| Maximum Depth | - | - |
| Surface Area | 10 acres | 1.4K acres |
| Public Access | Unknown | Unknown |
| Fish Species | 0 | 0 |
| Trophic State | eutrophic | eutrophic |
Bold value = better for that metric (lower phosphorus / chlorophyll = cleaner; higher Secchi / depth / species count = better).
Verdict
Both lakes earn the same Grade D. The tiebreakers come down to what you want from the lake. 1h Lake matches its peer on species count.
