That picture summed up the whole place quite nicely, well except for the termites, and the galvanised, rolled, flat, asphalt shingle roofing.....that is.

The Saguaro were nice though

It isn't pretty but other than the RX to the water heater (OK by some AHJs) and 2 missing covers it is probably code compliant.

Greg,

I would turn it down for the covers, no support on the romex leaving the round box, poor workmanship.....yeah I would probably use that one...

And no staples within 8 inches of those plastic boxes....and....DAMN I am glad I am not a AHJ full time....can you IMAGINE the death threats I would get........

Yup you are right about the "support". I guess I am going soft. I really didn't do much residential so all romex looks like that to me. I like pretty pipe.
