How many graffiti 311 requests San Francisco residents file each month.
How this category is defined
What counts as graffiti: Requests to remove graffiti from public or private property.
In San Francisco’s raw 311 data, the following 2 service_type values are counted as graffiti:
- Graffiti Private
- Graffiti Public
To reproduce these counts against the raw feed
SELECT count(*)
FROM <san_francisco_311_raw>
WHERE service_type IN (
'Graffiti Private',
'Graffiti Public'
)Analyst tip: Most cities use a literal 'Graffiti' or 'Graffiti Removal' string. Austin splits public vs. private property ('APH - Graffiti Abatement - Public Property' vs. 'DSD - Graffiti Abatement - Private Property'). San Francisco does the same split. Calgary uses 'Corporate - Graffiti Concerns'.
Source & provenance
Counts on this page are derived from San Francisco’s official open 311 data feed, covering April 2021 through April 30, 2026. Category assignment uses an AI-generated mapping from the city’s raw service types to a normalized cross-city category. View the underlying dataset at data.sfgov.org.
