New York City Parking Violations Fiscal Year 2020

New York City parking violation records issued between July 1, 2019 and June 30, 2020. The dataset is provided by the New York City Department of Finance and represents the initial issuance of violations, not their final status.

Use Cases

• Analyze violation frequency by Vehicle Make and Vehicle Body Type to identify vehicle categories with higher citation rates.
• Model spatial patterns of enforcement using Violation County, Violation Precinct, and Violation Location fields.
• Predict common Violation Codes based on Time First Observed, Violation Time, and To Hours In Effect for temporal analysis.
• Investigate specific infraction types like Hydrant Violation or Double Parking Violation across different Street Code zones.

Strengths

• Covers a full fiscal year from July 2019 to June 2020.
• Contains over 30 distinct columns detailing vehicle, violation, location, and issuer information.

Limitations

• Data represents only the issuance moment, not final status (paid, dismissed), limiting outcome analysis.
• Sample size and row count are unknown, preventing assessment of statistical reliability.
• Temporal coverage is limited to a single fiscal year, restricting longitudinal studies.
