Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6709 W Imlay Street in Chicago's Norwood Park neighborhood, owned by Stanley J Tomaszek, has been standing since 1956 and has experienced a limited number of documented issues in recent years. The most significant current concern is an unresolved building code violation from December 2019, which was initiated through a complaint-driven inspection. More recently, the property has generated some service requests, with the most pressing being an open tree removal inspection request filed in February 2025 with the Alderman's office. In December 2024, the building experienced multiple water-related problems, with three separate complaints about water service issues being filed and subsequently closed. An abandoned vehicle complaint made through the 311 City Services system in February 2025 was resolved, but this is a relatively minor issue compared to the building's primary concerns. While the total number of violations and complaints over the past seven years is relatively low, the 2019 building code violation and recent water service issues warrant attention as the most significant events on record for this property.

Risk rating

How 6709 W Imlay St'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.

Neighborhood percentile
59thpercentile

Out of 892 buildings in this neighborhood, 366 are predicted to be safer.
