Methodology and source limits
Reporting systems, categories, response programs and willingness to report differ between cities. Counts are reports, not measured rodent populations.
Counts Cincinnati 311 requests typed RATS (rats in a building, or a rat problem or infestation), RATSOUT (rats outside a building, first used in 2024) and MICE-BLD (a building has mice).
Cincinnati publishes the request date without a time of day.
The per-capita denominator is the Census city population, not metro-area or county population. The 2025 population estimate is 314,367, from Vintage 2025.
Inspect the source register, transformations and validation notes.
