What the inspections show

None of its two complaint inspections in the past two years led to a citation. 13% of similar communities had no complaint inspection that led to a citation.
No enforcement action by ADHS in the past two years. The same is true of 33% of similar communities.
Across six inspections since January 2024, the state never cited the same area twice.
