I think yours is similar to mine, but I have a lot of iron and the related bacteria that can plug a pump intake and that ultimately emit a sulfur odor.

On the positive side, the high alkalinity seems to be good for soaking odd-growing toe nails!

Overall, I would say you have relatively decent water.
