Indigenous Peoples Day: 311 requests down 24% vs a typical Monday — 6,659 filed across LA
Angelenos filed 6,659 MyLA311 service requests yesterday, down 24% against a typical Monday (median of the last 8 Mondays: 8,762). We compare like weekdays with like — a raw week-over-week number would mostly measure the weekend dip, not the news. Yesterday was Indigenous Peoples Day, a City of Los Angeles holiday — city offices were closed — so a Monday that reads down against ordinary Mondays is the calendar, not the news.
The city's loudest asks: Item Pickups (1,724), Illegal Dumping Item Pickup (1,497), Information-Only (1,389).
Busiest ZIP: Westlake / MacArthur Park (90057) with 302 requests. Around Westwood (90024/90025), neighbors filed 97 requests.
The ground moved 34 times in Southern California over the last day; the largest was a M2.0 13 km NW of Parkfield, CA.
In the permit ledger (which the city publishes weekly — on Tuesdays, through the previous Saturday), a recent standout: a $10,000,000 special care home permit in Hancock Park / Koreatown (90004). Declared construction value of all permits issued in the latest 30 days on record (Sep 11–Oct 10): $414,654,938.
