Methodology and source limits

Reporting systems, categories, response programs and willingness to report differ between cities. Counts are reports, not measured rodent populations.

Counts NOLA 311 requests to the Mosquito, Termite & Rodent Control Board with the reasons Rodent Complaint (Rats) and Rodent Complaint (Mice & Rats). Requests marked Non-Rodent Complaint are excluded.

Created times are published as local clock time. Some records share identical times, a sign of batch entry.

The per-capita denominator is the Census city population, not metro-area or county population. The 2025 population estimate is 362,154, from Vintage 2025.

Inspect the source register, transformations and validation notes.
