Childrens Choice Childcare standing, high SDWIS violation third

60 people served (SDWIS) - smaller served population (≤ 999). Corpus terciles use 29,740 systems serving 500+ (the sitemap cohort). Health-based share 5% is middle-third health share (≤ 23%). UCMR5: UCMR5 tested, none detected.

The verdict

Childrens Choice Childcare sits in the upper third of the sitemap cohort by violation count (241), so the tables below sample a dense compliance trail rather than a near-clean ledger. Population served is smaller (60; smaller served population (≤ 999)), so each violation row represents a compact service footprint. Health-based share is 5% (middle-third health share (≤ 23%)). UCMR5 tested this system and reported no PFAS above the minimum reporting level.

Violation Count vs. the National Corpus

Childrens Choice Childcare has 241 recorded EPA violations, 88% of the 29,740 public water systems serving 500+ people nationwide carry fewer, and 12% carry more. 5% of this system's own violations are health-based (12 of 241), and it ranks unranked by population served among that same cohort.

How many violations vs. how serious, among peer systems

Childrens Choice Childcare 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.
