A typical Tuesday for 311 — 8,858 requests filed across LA
Angelenos filed 8,858 MyLA311 service requests yesterday, up 3% against a typical Tuesday (median of the last 8 Tuesdays: 8,586). 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: Information-Only (2,361), Item Pickups (1,892), Illegal Dumping Item Pickup (1,861).
Busiest ZIP: Central-Alameda (90011) with 215 requests. Around Westwood (90024/90025), neighbors filed 196 requests.
The ground moved 50 times in Southern California over the last day; the largest was a M2.3 17 km WSW of Johannesburg, CA.
In the permit ledger (which the city publishes weekly — on Tuesdays, through the previous Saturday), a recent standout: a $10,000,000 apartment permit in Van Nuys (91411). Declared construction value of all permits issued in the latest 30 days on record (Aug 21–Sep 19): $2,558,272,203.
