New York Temporary Residence Inspection and Violation Records

Active hotels, motels, and cabin colonies in New York State with 11 or more occupants are tracked in this registry. The dataset includes details from the last health inspection, such as violations, facility owner, and amenities. It is published by health.data.ny.gov and was last updated in January 2026.

Use Cases

• Predict future VIOLATIONS based on LAST INSPECTED date, BUILDING TYPE, and NUMBER OF SLEEPING ROOMS using classification models.
• Analyze geographic patterns of NON-CORRECTED critical violations by joining on COUNTY, MUNICIPALITY, or ZIP CODE fields.
• Assess correlation between on-site amenities like ON-SITE POOL(S) or FOOD SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT(S) and the NUMBER CRITICAL VIOLATIONS.
• Identify high-risk operators by clustering facilities based on PERMITTED OPERATOR NAME and inspection history.

Strengths

• Includes inspection details like VIOLATIONS and INSPECTION COMMENTS for each active facility.
• Contains multiple geographic identifiers: COUNTY, MUNICIPALITY, ZIP CODE, and FACILITY ADDRESS for spatial analysis.

Limitations

• Sample size and total row count are unknown, limiting assessment of statistical power.
• Data freshness is unclear as it only shows the last inspection date without a historical time series of past checks.
