Initial analysis

The six-unit residential building at 3143 W Wilson Ave in Albany Park, owned by Dimas M Gallegos, has a documented history spanning over 110 years since its construction in 1913. The property has experienced a notable cluster of recent activity, with six complaint-driven inspections in November 2023, all of which have been resolved. Over the past seven years, the building has accumulated a total of ten code violations, though it's worth noting that all recent violations were promptly addressed. The building's service request history shows regular maintenance activity, particularly in waste management, with multiple yard waste pick-up requests logged throughout 2026, alongside complaints about a street pothole and a stray animal incident that were both resolved. The property has also had two building permits issued in the past seven years, suggesting some level of authorized construction or renovation work. The total number of 311 service requests associated with the property, counting both building-related issues and municipal services, stands at 40, indicating active engagement with city services to maintain the property and address neighborhood concerns.

Risk rating

How 3143 W Wilson 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.
