Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4964 N Mason Ave in the Jefferson Park neighborhood, built in 1923 and currently owned by Luis Corona, has generated a total of eight 311 service requests over the past seven years, with all requests clustered in the last two years (2024-2025). The most recent pattern of service requests indicates an ongoing issue with tree maintenance in the vicinity, with four of the eight requests specifically related to tree debris clean-up (closed), one tree emergency (closed), and one tree planting request (open) in May 2025. Additionally, there was one abandoned vehicle complaint (closed) recorded on July 30, 2025, though this appears to be an isolated incident not directly related to the building's immediate environment. The frequency of tree-related service requests suggests this is a recurring concern for the property and its surroundings, though all reported issues have been promptly addressed through city services, with the exception of the most recent planting request which remains open as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 4964 N Mason 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.
