- Fewer programs offering drop-in care than Texas as a whole. 235 of 1,248 programs here, 19% against 31% statewide. Drop-in care is booked by the session rather than by the month. Finding short-notice care

Where they are
15 of 15 cities placed. The marker for each sits at the median position of the programs we could locate there, so it marks where the childcare is rather than the city center. 115 of 1248 programs in Austin have no coordinates in the state's data and are in the lists but not on any map.

Inspection record across Austin
Texas HHSC has recorded 8,648 citations against programs in Austin, of which 2,254 were classed High risk. The median program here has 14 citations on its record. A median describes the metro and judges no program in it: a center open fifteen years has been inspected far more often than one open two, so a longer record is as often a sign of age as of trouble. How we handle this data.

Smaller communities in Austin
93 programs sit in 21 smaller communities. A place with only a handful of programs does not get its own page, because a page built on three records would be thin whatever was written on it. The programs are listed here instead, so each one is still one click from this page.
