311 requests down 7% vs a typical Saturday — 3,250 filed across LA
Angelenos filed 3,250 MyLA311 service requests yesterday, down 7% against a typical Saturday (median of the last 8 Saturdays: 3,512). We compare like weekdays with like — a raw week-over-week number would mostly measure the weekend dip, not the news.

Busiest ZIP: Downtown LA (South Park) (90015) with 115 requests. Around Westwood (90024/90025), neighbors filed 49 requests.
The ground moved 34 times in Southern California over the last day; the largest was a M3.1 4 km E of San Jacinto, CA.

Declared construction value of all permits issued in the latest 30 days on record (Sep 4–Oct 3): $377,911,659.
