Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 3025 W Ainslie Street in Albany Park, owned by Julius Draughn and constructed in 1919, has experienced several concerning issues over the past two years. Most notably, in July 2025, there was a cluster of problems including sanitation code violations, fly dumping, and an incident involving construction without the proper building permit. That same year, the property also required rodent control measures. The building has a total of six documented 311 service requests in the past seven years, with two building permits issued during the same period. Two additional building violations were recorded in December 2024, suggesting recent challenges with property maintenance and compliance with building codes. While the building's age and unit count are typical for its neighborhood, the concentration of violations and service requests in recent years raises particular concerns about the property's current condition and management.

Risk rating

How 3025 W Ainslie St'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.
