Source: City of Irving ArcGIS Online, Residential Permits Issued (Feb 15, 2022 to present) and Commercial Permits Issued (2/15/22 to present), read 23 Oct 2026. We count permits issued March 2023 through February 2025; denied and withdrawn permits are left out. Only the city's commercial permit table carries a status and a finaled date, and the residential table, which holds most permits, has neither, so no finished share is shown.
Building and trade permits the City of Irving issued inside the city limits, from the city's residential and commercial issued-permit tables. Certificates of occupancy, temporary-use and event permits are left out.
Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits. Nobody paid to be on this page and nobody can. Sources and definitions →
