Little Explorers Child Care Center standing, low SDWIS violation third
100% of 5 recorded violations are health-based - upper-third health share (> 23%). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). Health-based share 100% is upper-third health share (> 23%).
The verdict
Little Explorers Child Care Center is in the lower third by violation count (5; lower-third violation load (≤ 21 violations)). A low count does not mean the system is unmonitored - monitoring and reporting violations still appear in SDWIS. Population served is smaller (30; smaller served population (≤ 999)), so each violation row represents a compact service footprint. Health-based share is 100% - most of this ledger is MCL or treatment-technique exceedance. No UCMR5 PFAS test appears for this system in this extract.

How many violations vs. how serious, among peer systems
Little Explorers Child Care Center plotted against 29 peer public water systems (500+ people served), by total violation count (x) and the share of those violations that are health-based (y). The crosshair sits at this sample's own median on each axis. A high violation count does not automatically mean a serious record: most monitoring and reporting violations are minor, not health-based.
