About
Detailed records on food inspections carried out across the five boroughs of New York City provide valuable insight into the safety and hygiene status of local eateries. This dataset covers inspection results from 2017 up to March 2022, allowing researchers and analysts to understand the food service landscape of the Big Apple. The information is highly relevant for studies tracking variations in restaurant closures, performing geographical mapping of health scores, and conducting analyses focused on periods before and after the global pandemic.
Columns
The dataset structure includes 11 key fields detailing inspection specifics:
- CAMIS: A unique identification number for the establishment.
- DBA: The public business name of the restaurant (e.g., DUNKIN, KENNEDY FRIED CHICKEN).
- BORO: The name of the borough where the restaurant is situated.
- STREET: The street address.
- CUISINE DESCRIPTION: The type of food served (e.g., Chinese, American).
- INSPECTION DATE: The specific date the inspection was carried out.
- CRITICAL FLAG: Indicates whether a recorded violation was deemed Critical or Not Critical.
- SCORE: The resulting score from the inspection, ranging from 0 to 124.
- Latitude: The geographical latitude coordinate of the restaurant.
- Longitude: The geographical longitude coordinate of the restaurant.
- year: The calendar year of the inspection.
Distribution
The information is typically provided in a CSV file format. The original data source contains above 300,000 records, with a full file size of 144.14 MB. While the source data consists of 26 columns, smaller, sample-ready files focusing on individual boroughs (such as the Bronx file at 4.09 MB) are structured with 11 columns for easier management.
Usage
Ideal applications for this data include:
- Determining the volume and specific types of restaurants operating within different boroughs.
- Analysing trends in closure rates over various periods.
- Executing comparison studies between pre- and post-COVID operational changes.
- Creating geographical maps that display inspection data across NYC.
Coverage
The geographic scope includes all five New York City boroughs. The time coverage spans from 2017 to March 2022, though some historical records in the 'year' field date back as far as 1900. The data is expected to be updated annually.
