Source: City of Prince George Open Data, service requests (CityWorks), Open Government Licence – City of Prince George. Counts only: we place each request in a neighbourhood and then drop its location, so no address is stored or shown. A request is a report, not a confirmed problem; seasons drive most changes (snow in winter, water shut-offs and locates in summer).
