Compiled from DSA's public certification records; cert status reflects each project's official DSA closing-letter outcome and is still backfilling statewide, so counts rise as coverage completes. Counts refresh every 10 minutes. For historical context, the California State Auditor's 2010 report identified 16,386 uncertified projects.
