About these numbers
From dog licence records, not a count of all dogs, and around 80% of New York City dogs are unlicensed. Comparisons use rates per 10,000 licensed dogs in each ZIP code, so a large neighbourhood does not automatically look distinctive. A neighbourhood where fewer people license their dogs may still be represented differently from one where more people do.
