High-quality childcare is important for children safety and health. In our project , we did some data visualization with the NYC restaurant inspection dataset. We find this very inspiring and the idea of analyzing child care center inspections’ data came to our mind. A violation in a health care center would be, to some extent, more serious than violation in the restaurant and we would consider our project as a meaningful and realistic topic. We aim to find out some possible variables that would influence the rate of violation in child care centers in NYC.
In our website, we have six parts in total.
In visualization part, we have:
Violation rate distribution by program type
Violation rate distribution by borough
Number of violations by program type
Number of violations by violation category
In statistical analysis part, we have:
ANOVA test
Chi-square test
Proportion test
In shiny dashboard part, we have:
Dashboard related to maximum capacity, educational worker ratio and violation rate for different program types.

In model regression part, we have:

Logistic model
In interactive map part, we have:
Maps that can show the violation rate in different zip code areas.

In project report part, you can overview our final project report:
In this project, the dataset we used is here, which is obtained from NYC OpenData
This dataset contains a list of all inspections conducted and any associated violations at active, city-regulated,
center-based child care programs and summer camps over the past 3 years. The violations are pre-adjudicated.
Violations that are subject to potential penalties (fines) are submitted to NYC Office of Administrative Trials and
Hearing where they are adjudicated as either sustained/upheld or dismissed. The dataset also contains additional
information on the programs, including license information. For more information on child care in NYC visit:
