Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 4139 N Springfield Ave in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood was constructed in 1978 and is currently owned by the John F McGuire Trustee. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of 10 service requests through the city's 311 system. The most recent activity, all occurring in 2026, includes two open requests for blue recycling cart maintenance and a sign repair request, as well as a closed tree emergency response. Earlier in 2026, there were successfully resolved requests for garbage cart maintenance and another blue recycling cart service. The building's documented history shows relatively minimal maintenance issues, with the most significant concentration of service requests relating to waste management infrastructure rather than any safety or habitability concerns. The property's service request pattern suggests regular use of city services for standard municipal maintenance needs, primarily focused on waste management systems.

Risk rating

How 4139 N Springfield 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.
