California coverage
Find the authority that inspects your kitchen.
Every California county and city food safety authority, with the fire code overlay — scoring method, thresholds, hood cleaning frequency, and the primary source behind each one.
Six methods, one code. Shading shows how each agency reports a result, not how strict it is. Tap a method to isolate it.
Kitchens inside Berkeley, Long Beach, Pasadena, and Vernon answer to a city health authority rather than the county they sit in. San Francisco is its own county, so it appears on the map.
Latest coverage
Primary-source reporting for kitchen leaders. Verified against the code, not summarized from it.
