Your neighbors are really calling 311 about what
Look— Dallas on the wire, big hat, bigger story. And y’all, what’s really got people dialing 311 in Dallas ain't what you might think. We're talking about almost *thirty-two thousand* calls this quarter for "Code Concern - CCS." That’s 30,203 requests, to be exact. It absolutely dwarfs everything else on the list.
Now, what does "Code Concern" mean? It’s basically folks saying, "Hey, that property down the street? Something ain't right." Could be overgrown weeds, trash piling up, rundown structures. The city code compliance officers are busy, I tell you what. For context, the next highest issue, "Single Family Rental Needs Registration," only hit 1,331 requests. It's not even close. This data comes straight from the city’s 311 service request system.
Think about it: people in Dallas are looking out their windows and saying, "Enough is enough." It shows how much our neighborhoods mean to us, from Pleasant Grove all the way up to Preston Hollow. What we’re seeing is a city that cares deeply about its curb appeal and safety. We'll be watching to see how the city addresses this overwhelming demand for code enforcement.
Dallas on the wire — big hat, bigger story.
