Initial analysis

The 18-unit residential building at 6205 N Francisco in Chicago's West Ridge neighborhood, owned by Radojka Planinic and constructed in 1952, has experienced several concerning issues over the past seven years. Most notably, there are currently four unresolved building code violations, all documented in February 2020, including three complaint-driven inspections and one periodic routine inspection. While the building has generated 13 service requests through the 311 system during this period, the majority of recent complaints have been related to external infrastructure issues rather than the building itself. These recent complaints, all from 2026, include three alley pothole complaints and one street light outage, all of which have been closed. Earlier in 2025, there were two rodent-related complaints that were also closed. While the building's exterior and surrounding infrastructure have posed some challenges, the most significant concern remains the four open code violations from 2020, which have persisted for over three years as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 6205 N Francisco 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.
