If you're acquiring, brokering, insuring, or operating childcare facilities in Harris County, the state regulatory record is the diligence layer most often missed. ClosureRadar tracks every licensed operation in the county against the official Texas HHSC record — risk-scored, source-linked, and re-checked daily. Here's the current aggregate picture.
These are aggregates from the official public record as of the latest daily sync. Notably, 3 of the 2462 are under an active enforcement action right now, and 146 carry ten or more high-severity citations — the kind of signal a seller's snapshot rarely shows.
A single open enforcement action on a target can block license transfer at close; a cluster of high-severity deficiencies predicts recurrence and liability. The numbers above move week to week as new inspections land — which is why a one-time pull at LOI isn't enough. ClosureRadar gives you the facility-level breakdown (names, full history, trend) and alerts you the moment a watched Harris County operation's record changes.
Free sample report on any target — full sourced history, risk-scored. No call required.

It's authoritative but split across datasets, unscored, and shows only the current snapshot. ClosureRadar normalizes it, scores it, tracks the trend, and links every record back to the official source. We exclude nursing homes (CMS covers those federally) and focus on the verticals no national database aggregates. See the full diligence checklist →
