Non-emergency 311 calls in New York City climbed to over 3.4 million in 2024, up 7% from 2023. To increase transparency and help the city respond to growing quality of life complaints, Comptroller DiNapoli announced the launch of the NYC311 Monitoring Tool, an interactive dashboard that will let people see service requests in their neighborhood and help identify where resources may be needed. Along with the new tool, Comptroller DiNapoli released a report highlighting trends in NYC311 service requests over the past five years.

“New Yorkers are increasingly contacting 311 to report lack of heat and hot water, excessive street noise and illegally parked cars,” DiNapoli said. “Our new NYC311 Monitoring Tool maps complaints and breaks down the information by neighborhood. Being able to see where complaints are heaviest by type and location should make it easier for advocates, agency officials and policymakers to identify neighborhoods that need help or where resources should be focused.”
