Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3123 W Eastwood Ave in Albany Park, currently owned by Bickford Holdings LLC, has been subject to several concerning incidents over the past year. Most notably, there has been a cluster of six complaint-driven inspections in August 2025, five of which remain unresolved as of that month, while one has been resolved. These recent violations suggest ongoing regulatory compliance challenges. The building has also experienced notable pest control issues, with two documented rodent-related complaints in early 2025 (March and June), though these were subsequently addressed and closed.

Risk rating

How 3123 W Eastwood 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

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
