I am using the Dissolve tool to aggregate groups of parcels based on common tax bill address. The parcels have had various extra attributes added to parcels, both numeric and string. It would be most useful and appropriate for our use case for the Dissolve tool to support a MAJORITY "statistics type." This would allow me to capture the dominant characteristic among the possible values for a specific attribute. I imagine some users might also find a "MINORITY" statistics type useful. Thanks.

This is implemented in ArcGIS Pro 3.4 as a new Mode statistic, which calculates the most commonly-occurring value.

In ArcGIS Pro 3.4, you will find the mode statistic type in the Dissolve tool, as well as in the Pairwise Dissolve, Summary Statistics, and Unsplit Line tools.
