Normally there are at least three cars on the road doing a separate section. At the end of the night you mark off the area you completed, and put the date. The next evening, you pick a new spot, and this continues until you start repeating sections. Area of known concern are targeted, complaints are also dealt with in addition to the selected areas. Realistically, if a car was left on the street overnight, it would be tagged "around" every four days (assuming there is no complaint).
Was it a new build you moved into? There is a period from roads being unassumed to city control where enforcement is lax as an "education"... I'd be surprised if other "established" neighbourhoods were ignored.

My house was 100 years old .
No idea, like I said, this surprises me very much, I have given up calling in bike lane and sidewalk parking complaints, because my impression is that they are never enforced anyway.
My real wakeup call was calling in bushes overgrowing the sidewalk and forcing people to walk on the street on Victoria St., took me 6 weeks and four phone calls to get the city to enforce it.
I do feel bad for officers who I'm sure feel they are doing a public service, when the public feels this way about what they do, well, it can't be good.
