Using NYC 311 complaint data pigeon complaints were explored. Complaints included individuals complaining about pigeon waste, or pigeon odors. For this visualization only the March 1-10th 2024 period was explored.
The darker the color, the more complaints. Notice that Manhattan and Brooklyn have a few hot spots for complaints.
This again raises the question are there actually more complaints of pigeon poo, or do people in Manhattan and Brooklyn complain more? Also it’s not taking into account population – are there more people and thus more complaints in one borough?
