Comments

Houston 311 is the City of Houston’s non-emergency service to report troubles and to get answers on City services. All publicly available service requests filed in the LAGAN are included in this dataset. This dataset does not include tickets for BARC (animal-related service requests) as they are filed in the Chameleon system. This data set can be used in conjunction with BARC Animal Service Requests to get a full picture of public 311 service requests: https://data.ohouston.org/dataset/barc-animal-service-requests

This dataset provides various resources around the City of Houston's 311 service. The resources are updated nightly unless otherwise noted. Please see the metadata and individual resources for more information about what's included. More information about 311 can be learned at: https://www.houstontx.gov/311/‎
