What counts as sidewalks: Sidewalk repair and obstruction complaints, curb damage, and sidewalk snow-and-ice clearance concerns.
In Washington’s raw 311 feed, the following 2 service_type values roll into sidewalks:
- Sidewalk Repair
- Snow Removal Complaints for Sidewalks
To reproduce these counts against the raw feed
SELECT count(*)

)Analyst tip: Austin uses 'TPW - Sidewalk Repair' and 'TPW - Obstruction in Right of Way'. Calgary's sidewalk-snow-and-ice calls come in under 'Bylaw - Snow and Ice on Sidewalk' (separate from the equivalent roadway category). LA splits this across 'Curb Issues', 'Obstructions', and 'Report a Sidewalk Problem'.
