Know Your Block tracks rats, mold, no heat, sewage backups, drug activity, noise, vacant buildings, and the other property and quality-of-life issues reported to City of Columbus code enforcement — the stuff Zillow and Apartments.com don't show.

Source & method Data comes from official City of Columbus code enforcement records (Accela portal + ArcGIS REST API). Comparison figures are computed against the full citywide dataset; "above the citywide rate" means a category's share of complaints in this neighborhood is higher than its share citywide. Complaints are reports filed with the city — they may be unverified, resolved, or in dispute. Categories are assigned by automated keyword matching and may include mismatches. Individual property records are surfaced through search, not listed on this page.
