Preventive Health Building Inspections from Québec Municipalities, Pilot 2024

Preventive health inspections from the Real Estate and Housing Strategy Department of Québec record the physical condition of building parts on a scale of 1 to 6. The data includes flags for buildings transferred for complete inspection and for statements of violation served without notice. A pilot project from January 1 to June 1, 2024, was used to test and optimize processes.

Use Cases

• Assessing building deterioration trends based on the 1-6 physical condition scale
• Identifying properties requiring escalated action based on the 'transferred for complete inspection' flag
• Analyzing enforcement patterns based on the 'statement of violation served without notice' indicator

Strengths

• Data includes a standardized 1-6 scale for physical condition assessment
• Pilot project period from January 1 to June 1, 2024, is explicitly defined
• Available in multiple formats including CSV and geospatial formats (GEOJSON, SHP)

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
