AI summary

The two-flat residential building at 4925 N Kentucky Ave in Albany Park, owned by William E Post, was constructed in 1925 and has remained under single ownership with one parcel recorded. Over the past seven years, the property has generated three documented service requests to the 311 system, with the most recent request occurring in May 2026 for yard waste pick-up. Prior to that, in March 2026, a garbage cart maintenance request was made and closed. Notably, in September 2024, the property owner proactively requested a water lead test kit, which was also successfully closed, indicating participation in the city's lead safety program. While the 311 service request history shows limited usage of city services, with no record of urgent or safety-related incidents, the building's age (nearly 100 years) and comparatively recent request for water testing suggest that residents are being encouraged to monitor potential lead concerns in their drinking water systems.

Risk rating

How 4925 N Kentucky Ave 2Flat'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.
