How we counted
What’s on the board, and what isn’t
- The board tracks request types where the closure timestamp plausibly means work happened - a tow, a filled pothole, a baited alley. Informational calls and aircraft noise complaints are off the board: the city logs them at its own buildings (662,321 at the 311 call center in Ward 28; 364,900 at O’Hare in Ward 41), so those records describe a facility, not a neighborhood.
- Some types close almost instantly citywide. We show them anyway and say so - a race everyone finishes before lunch is still a public record.
