Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3944 N Normandy Ave in Chicago's Dunning neighborhood, owned by M & J Chudy, has been part of the urban landscape since its construction in 1962. The property has generated minimal municipal service requests over the past seven years, with only two documented 311 complaints, both related to street issues - a pothole in February 2026 and a street light outage in April 2024, both of which were subsequently resolved. Looking further back, there was one recorded noise complaint from 2006, though no subsequent environmental issues have been documented. The building's recent history suggests relatively stable conditions, with no reported issues directly related to the property itself in recent years, and the limited number of service requests may indicate either effective property management or a lack of tenantreported concerns.

Risk rating

How 3944 N Normandy 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

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.
