Where do these numbers come from?

Sources. HPD housing violations and OATH/ECB hearing results, plus DOB violations, DOB complaints and the city's PLUTO tax-lot file. Counts cover HPD Class B and C violations from the last 3 years that HPD still shows open, and OATH/ECB summonses from the same 3 years that the city still shows active.
