A citizen-reported issue submitted through Montgomery’s 311 system. Covers potholes, broken streetlights, trash collection issues, drainage problems, sidewalk repairs, and more. Each request tracks department, type, status, district, and dates.
A geographic information system (GIS) platform by Esri. Montgomery publishes its city data through ArcGIS FeatureServers, which the Civic Hub queries for map, table, and chart data.
The smallest geographic unit used by the U.S. Census Bureau. Typically corresponds to a city block bounded by streets. Montgomery has thousands of census blocks.
A group of census blocks, typically containing 600-3,000 people. Used for more detailed demographic analysis than census tracts.
A geographic region defined for the purpose of taking a census, typically containing about 4,000 people. Used as the primary unit for demographic analysis.
A citation issued when a property fails to meet city code standards. Common types include nuisance violations (overgrown lots, junk vehicles), demolition orders for unsafe structures, and sign violations.

An individual plot of land as defined in the city’s property records. Each parcel has a unique ID and is associated with ownership, zoning, and assessment data.

One of the four audience-specific dashboards in the Civic Hub: Resident, Business, City Staff, and Researcher. Each has tailored AI behavior and datasets.
A SQL-like filter used in ArcGIS queries to select specific records. Example: Status='Open' AND District=3 returns only open records in District 3. The year filter generates these automatically.
Land use classifications assigned by the city that determine what can be built on a parcel — residential, commercial, industrial, mixed-use, etc.
