Angelenos filed 3,887 MyLA311 service requests yesterday, up 1% against a typical Sunday (median of the last 8 Sundays: 3,838). We compare like weekdays with like — a raw week-over-week number would mostly measure the weekend dip, not the news.
The city's loudest asks: Item Pickups (1,185), Illegal Dumping Item Pickup (1,086), Graffiti Removal (494).
Busiest ZIP: Westlake / MacArthur Park (90057) with 177 requests. Around Westwood (90024/90025), neighbors filed 46 requests.
The ground moved 42 times in Southern California over the last day; the largest was a M1.5 17 km WNW of Tehachapi, CA.
In the permit ledger (which the city publishes ~2 weeks in arrears), a recent standout: a $5,944,000 apartment permit in Mar Vista (90066). Declared construction value of all permits issued in the latest 30 days on record (Aug 14–Sep 12): $2,592,789,696.
