AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 3837 N Kedzie Ave in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood, owned by Maria D Rodriguez, has a century-plus history dating back to its 1903 construction. Recent city service records from the past seven years show recurring issues with waste management and building maintenance. Of particular note is a pattern of sanitation-related complaints, with three documented 311 service requests between late 2024 and 2026, including a fly dumping complaint, a sanitation code violation, and a garbage cart maintenance issue, all of which have been resolved. The property has generated a total of eight building violations in the past seven years, along with 30 service requests recorded under the owner's name. While the building has received only two permits during this period, the owner has maintained oversight of six total parcels. Given the age of the structure and the documented history of waste management challenges, these records may provide valuable context for prospective residents regarding the building's maintenance and sanitation history.

Risk rating

How 3837 N Kedzie 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.
