Initial analysis

1546 W Jonquil in Chicago's Rogers Park neighborhood is a 27-unit residential building constructed in 1930, currently owned by Good News Partners. The property has experienced noteworthy challenges in recent years, with three unresolved building code violations as of 2024, including one related to a complaint-driven inspection and two from periodic routine inspections. The building's violation history is concerning, showing a total of 33 building violations under current ownership over the past seven years. While there have been some resolutions, including one periodic inspection violation complied by December 2023 and several 311 service requests being closed, the pattern of open violations is particularly notable. The property has also generated multiple 311 service requests in recent years, including open cases regarding building violations and construction issues as of 2025, though some requests have been resolved, such as a plumbing violation from March 2024 and a tree trim request from August 2024. The building's permit history shows minimal activity, with only two permits issued in the past seven years, suggesting limited improvement or maintenance work has been undertaken. Additionally, there is a historical air pollution complaint from 1998, though this is likely less relevant given its age relative to current conditions.

Risk rating

How 1546 W Jonquil Chicago'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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

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

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

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

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

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