311 requests up 13% vs a typical Sunday — 4,344 filed across LA
Angelenos filed 4,344 MyLA311 service requests yesterday, up 13% against a typical Sunday (median of the last 8 Sundays: 3,836). 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 (1,109), Illegal Dumping Item Pickup (1,108), Homeless Encampment (587).
Busiest ZIP: Westlake / MacArthur Park (90057) with 588 requests. Around Westwood (90024/90025), neighbors filed 53 requests.
The ground moved 37 times in Southern California over the last day; the largest was a M3.6 6 km WSW of Hermosa Beach, 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.
