  • Track record — Across 6.5 years and 5 inspections, the community has drawn 3 Type A and 6 Type B citations, a notable count for a 6-bed home of this size.
  • Recent 3 years — The last three years of dated visits show no Type A citations, but 2 Type B citations and 2 substantiated allegations from a single complaint investigation in early 2026.
  • Complaints — The one complaint investigation on record resulted in both allegations being substantiated, a 100% substantiation rate that's worth discussing directly with the community.
  • Operating tenure — Licensed since 2020, the community has been through five annual inspection cycles, giving a reasonably solid basis for judging its pattern over time.
