Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 7804 W Addison St 1 in the Dunning neighborhood, owned by Richard W Meyer, was constructed in 1979 and has had minimal recorded service requests over the past seven years. The building's documented 311 service requests include three incidents between 2024 and 2026, with the most recent being a blue recycling cart request in April 2026. Of particular note is a rodent baiting/rat complaint and a garbage cart maintenance issue that occurred simultaneously in August 2024, which could indicate challenges with waste management practices at that time. While all recorded service requests have been closed, the presence of a rodent complaint and garbage maintenance issue suggests there were sanitation concerns during 2024, though there have been no such complaints in the two years since. The relatively low number of service requests over this period may suggest either good building maintenance or potentially underreporting of issues.

Risk rating

How 7804 W Addison St 1'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.
