Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4049 N Long Ave in Portage Park, owned by Michael Zaccaria, has been standing since 1913 and has experienced several noteworthy events in recent years. Most recently, in early 2026, there were two validated environmental complaints regarding construction and demolition activity at the property, one of which was resolved within one day and the other within four days, suggesting prompt attention to the issues. The building has also faced some maintenance challenges, evidenced by a rodent baiting complaint in January 2026 and a snow removal request in December 2025, both of which were properly closed. While the building has had both environmental complaints and 311 service requests in recent years, it's worth noting that these incidents remain relatively low in frequency considering the building's age and urban location, with only two complaints and two service requests recorded in the past seven years.

Risk rating

How 4049 N Long Ave 2'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.
