How it compares in Harris County

0.64 high-risk violations per inspection, against a county median of 0.60. Lower is better.

Better than 45 out of 100 daycares in Harris County, and 41 out of 100 across the Houston metro. Rate, not raw count, because a center inspected 25 times will always have more findings on paper than one inspected twice.
