Daycares in Utah

Utah over time
Every dated record we hold for Utah, bucketed by calendar year. Each panel names its own coverage: a line appears once a year carries enough observations to be a point rather than an anecdote, and says why it is empty when it is.
Safety index trend
Utah publishes no inspection record this pipeline can read, so there is no violation-rate line to draw here. Read that as a gap in what we can see, not as a finding. An empty inspection history is not a clean record.

Where this record comes from
Licensing in Utah is administered by the DHHS, Division of Licensing and Background Checks under Utah Admin. Code R430-100. This directory republishes the public record and labels every absent field "Not listed" rather than filling it in. Verify current status with the agency before enrolling.
