5h — HUD inspection scores
Public housing · 1431 Stewart St, Des Moines, IA 50316
Scores higher than 8% of Iowa’s 395 currently scored properties · state median 92
Under NSPIRE, a score below 60 is failing; 60–79 puts a property on a more frequent inspection cycle.
What this score sets in motion
A score of 77 passes, but on a tighter leash: HUD inspects below-80 properties roughly annually instead of every two to three years, so the next published score should arrive comparatively soon. How the score bands work.

HUD's published files sample the record: each snapshot carries a property's latest score at publication, so an inspection can be missing between snapshots, and no inspections conducted 2010–2012 appear in any file HUD still publishes. History here is assembled from every file HUD offers.
