NYC 311 Rodent Complaints
The NYC311 Rodent Complaints data was used to develop an interactive map representing locations across the NYC area where rodent related issues are chronically reported.
An investigation was also conducted on how the surrounding area looks like in terms of urban use in locations where rodent related complaints are the highest.
Additionally, the distance between a Rat sighting and a nearby NYC Urban Features (residential buildings, food-related businesses, Subway) was calculated. This proximity analysis allows a better understanding of the brown rat territory preferences in NYC.
