A clearance that is not on file is not a “no” — it may simply be unrecorded, so if your family needs one of these, ask the home directly and confirm its current scope on a tour.

What the state has logged
California has logged 13 state visits for this home as of August 2, 2026. These are the home's own counts, straight from that record — shown beside the statewide median for mid-size homes (7–15 beds), computed across all 307 licensed homes of that size, because larger and longer-licensed homes naturally accumulate more visits and reports. They are facts, not a grade — a citation may be minor and since corrected, and an “unsubstantiated” complaint is not a finding of wrongdoing.
