How this category is extracted

What counts as parking: Enforcement complaints about illegally parked vehicles, blocked driveways, parking meter issues, and parking-sign maintenance. Distinct from `abandoned_vehicles`, which is about long-term neglect rather than enforcement.

In Los Angeles’s raw 311 feed, the following 2 service_type values roll into parking:

  • Dockless Mobility Enforcement
  • Parking Issues

To reproduce these counts against the raw feed

SELECT count(*)
FROM <los_angeles_311_raw>
WHERE service_type IN (
  'Dockless Mobility Enforcement',
  'Parking Issues'
)

Analyst tip: Austin prefixes with 'TPW - Parking' (Transportation and Public Works). NYC uses 'Blocked Driveway' and 'Illegal Parking'. LA has a broad 'Parking Issues' plus 'Dockless Mobility Enforcement' for scooter parking. Oakland simply uses 'PARKING'. Note: abandoned vehicles are a SEPARATE category in this dataset.
