Initial analysis

The three-unit building at 1257 W Arthur Ave in Chicago's Rogers Park neighborhood, owned by Patrick A. Hulne, has a recorded history dating back to 1916. The property's recent activity shows noticeable concern, with two open unresolved building code violations as of June 10, 2026, both stemming from complaint-driven inspections. This represents the most significant current issue affecting the property. In the same month, there were two additional incidents involving building-related matters - one being a resolved building violation complaint and another related to fly dumping. Earlier service requests from 2025 and 2026 included a completed graffiti removal request and a tree trimming inquiry (which is no longer being accepted), respectively. Looking further back, the only environmental complaint on record was from January 2001 regarding recycling, which appears to have been addressed by the following day.

Risk rating

How 1257 W Arthur 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.
