Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 6819 W Devon Ave in Norwood Park, owned by E Sendlak & T Sedlak, has been recorded in various city databases since its construction in 1952. Over the past seven years, there have been three notable service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent occurring in June 2026 regarding a rodent baiting issue. Prior to this, in December 2024, there was a complaint about a missed garbage pick-up, and in July 2024, a street cleaning request was made, both of which have since been closed. Looking further back in the building's history, there was one environmental complaint recorded in May 2005 relating to air pollution, though it is unclear whether this was directly tied to the building itself or another nearby source. The relatively low number of service requests over the past seven years, with the most recent focusing on pest control, is worth noting in terms of current resident experience.

Risk rating

How 6819 W Devon Ave 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.

Neighborhood percentile
28thpercentile
