Pure (or distilled) water does not contain iron. If the water has travelled through an iron pipe, it will dissolve some iron. Well water or water from many other sources contains some iron because the soil contains some iron compounds, which can dissolve. Sea water contains iron. But the actual amount varies quite a bit.
