Permit Radar
Every roof, solar array, EV charger, ADU and pool the City of Los Angeles issued a permit for — pulled live from the public record, the moment you load this page. See which blocks are moving right now, what the work is worth, and the houses on that street that still have not done theirs.
Where it is happening now
Ranked by permits issued in the last 90 days. Tap a neighbourhood to open the actual permit records — address, permit number, declared value and date, exactly as the City filed them.
The part most people get backwards
A permit that has already been issued is a job somebody has already won. By the time it appears here, that homeowner has signed.
The opening is the rest of the street. Houses on a block go up together, so their roofs age together and fail together. When six neighbours pull permits in ninety days, the remaining houses on that block are the warmest doors in the city — same build year, same weather, same wear, and they have just watched six skips go by.
So read the ranking below as a map of streets, not a list of customers. The density number is the signal; the addresses tell you which streets to walk.
How the score is worked out
Nothing here is a black box, so you can argue with it. Each record scores out of 100, from three things only:
- Block activity (max 55) — how many permits that neighbourhood filed in the last 90 days, against the busiest neighbourhood in the city.
- Freshness (max 30) — 30 at issue, decaying to 0 across 90 days. A street cools down.
- Ticket size (max 15) — the declared value against the city median for that kind of work.
Declared value is what the applicant wrote on the form. It is a floor, not a quote, and it is often conservative.
Public record, published by the City of Los Angeles. No personal data is shown here and none is collected — every address below is already a public filing. This is a research tool, not a contact list: if you use it to knock doors, follow the rules that apply to you.
