Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6425 N Newark Ave in Chicago's Norwood Park neighborhood, owned by P Szorc and B Polubinski, has a relatively sparse record over the past seven years. The two-story structure, built in 1957, has only one building code violation on record from November 2021, which remains open and unresolved. Recent activity in 2025 shows multiple service interactions, primarily related to abandoned vehicle complaints, with six such reports filed between February 13-31, 2025, though all of these were closed following appropriate resolution. One service request remains open as of August 2025 for a Water Lead Test Kit request, which could be of particular significance given current health and safety concerns about water quality. The building's records show no building permits issued in the past seven years and only one environmental complaint from 2009 regarding air pollution, which is notably dated and not directly related to the building's current conditions.

Risk rating

How 6425 N Newark Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Chicago code enforcement data — building violations, 311 complaint history, environmental enforcement, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that the City of Chicago will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
