Your neighbor probably called 311 more than you think

So here's what happened — your Dallas neighbors have been busy with the phones, or the app, letting the city know what's grinding their gears. And y'all, the numbers for 311 service requests are in, and one thing is clear: we're keeping an eye on our streets.

Look, "Code Concern - CCS" topped the charts by a mile, hitting a staggering 29,624 requests. That's almost 30,000 calls about everything from overgrown weeds to junk in someone's yard. It shows how much we care about how our neighborhoods look and feel, especially in places like Oak Cliff where folks take pride in their homes.

Here's a quick rundown of what else was keeping the city busy:

* **Code Concern - CCS:** 29,624 requests

* **Single Family Rental Needs Registration - CCS:** 1,299 requests

* **Consumer Protection Complaint - CCS:** 446 requests

* **Restaurant/Food Complaint - CCS:** 167 requests

The "Single Family Rental Needs Registration" came in a distant second at 1,299 requests, which tells me folks are paying attention to those new rental rules. It’s all part of trying to manage the growth we’re seeing, from the Bishop Arts District all the way out to Pleasant Grove.

What this means for us is that residents are engaged. They’re using the tools the city gives them to report issues, and that’s a good thing for keeping Dallas humming. We'll be watching to see how the city addresses these concerns in the coming months, especially with so many eyes on code enforcement.

Dallas on the wire — big hat, bigger story.

Y'all can hear me and the crew talk about this stuff every morning, live at mornings.live.
