The Roman Empire was truly the empire of a city: Rome. This would make Rome the oldest city in the empire. However, as the Roman Empire expanded, it conquered land all around the Mediterranean and beyond. Within its boundaries, the oldest city inhabited by humans was Jericho (first being settled 9,000 BC).
The water supply for the Roman baths came from the same source as all water in Rome, the aqueducts.
There was swimming in ancient Rome. The baths of Caracalla in the city of Rome had a swimming pool and so did some of the other largest Roman baths around the empire. Most people went to the baths daily.
The Roman Emperor Trajan spent the gold extracted from the conquest of Dacia on many buildings in Rome. One area Trajan wished to improve was the public baths. Reportedly, he had the architect Apollodorus of Damascus design a huge complex of public baths. Citizens could enjoy hot and cold baths. The baths were a great way to socialize in ancient Rome.
Roman baths did not, as the question implies make things "worse". Ancient Roman baths were built first in Rome and later became a part of all large Roman cities and in cities Rome conquered that were deemed large enough to have them. Wealthy Romans often had their own private baths. Many Roman cities and conquered ones had indoor plumbing fed by waters carried in from Roman built aqueducts. Public baths were in a sense part of Roman genius and part of Roman culture. Some of the baths were fed by natural spring waters. The baths in some places were so sophisticated that they were heated. The baths were ideal for Roman citizens who could not afford private ones. The baths served not only as a place to keep clean, but were also recreational and a place for people to gather and meet.
No, the Roman baths were not mixed sexes, at least not in the imperial baths in the city of Rome itself. The women went in the morning and the men went in the afternoon. In privately owned baths, it would be up to the discretion of the owner of the bathhouse.
The biggest baths were the baths ofDiocletianin Rome. Their construction was commissioned by co-emperor Maximian in honour of his co-emperorDiocletian. They was opened in 306 AD.

The name of the Roman baths was thermae. Only in the city of Rome, where there were many baths, there were distinctive names for baths: the Baths of Agrippa, the Baths of Nero, the Thermae Etrusci, the Baths of Titus, the Baths of Domitian, the Baths of Trajan, the Baths of Caracalla and the Baths of Diocletian. Thermae Etrusci is a term coined by historians. They were commissioned by Claudius Etruscus, a freedman at the court of the emperor Claudius who became the head of the imperial financial administration.
There were Roman baths all around the Roman empire. They were usually found in Forums of big cities, like the one in the city Rome.
This immense complex, the Baths of Caracalla, built for the citizens of Rome took only six years to construct.
