Data from seeclickfix.com, used under the CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 license. Public requests only; recorded back to May 11, 2013. A typical time from fewer than 5 requests shows "Not enough data". In the tables, – means fewer than 5 requests, too few for a typical time, or, for requests outside the wards, no population to count per 1,000 residents. Methodology.
