Anyone know what this error (listed below) is and how to fix it?

Type Error: '>' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int'

I was working with geopandas for my individual project, and pulling data from a dataframe which appears to only have numbers in it and there is no ">" symbol anywhere in the dataframe. The data looks fine if exported to a csv as well.

Hmm... any chance you are trying to sort by a column that contains both strings and integers? That would cause a comparison to happen. Or... well, something in your code probably needs to be changed from a string to an integer, or vice versa. Not sure what without seeing more of the code...
