Methodology
- Source: NYC Open Data, 311 Service Requests from 2010 to Present (dataset
erm2-nwe9). - Window: trailing 365 days from the date this page was last refreshed (shown above).
- Grouped by the dataset's
community_board field; rows with no board assigned are excluded. - Counts are raw 311 service requests, not proven violations, tickets, or unique complainants.
- This page re-fetches from NYC Open Data roughly once a day — the numbers move as the city's own dataset moves.
