Collecting NYC Open Data from the Socrata service

In Chapter 12, Data Exploration and Visualization, Chapter 16, Data Pipelines with Luigi, Chapter 17, Let's Build a Dashboard, Chapter 18, Serving Models with a RESTful API, and Chapter 19, Serverless API Using Chalice, we'll be working with the New York City 311 complaints (a non-urgent version of the 911 service) dataset. This data is available via a public portal (https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Social-Services/311-Service-Requests-from-2010-to-Present/erm2-nwe9), both via a web interface and programmatically via an API. The code for pulling this data via the API is rather dull and similar to what we've written already, so we won't cover it in detail. In Chapter 16, Data Pipelines with Luigi, we'll discuss how to pull this dataset systematically and on a scheduled basis. If you want, however, feel free...
