AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 3355 N Kedzie Ave in Avondale, owned by James C Dietz Sr and constructed in 1913, has had a moderate level of municipal service requests over the past seven years, totaling 19 calls to 311. The most recent activities, dating from 2026, have primarily involved external matters including two tree emergencies (one currently open as of June 2026), yard waste management (one open and one closed request), and a sign repair request from February 2026 that remains unresolved. The previous year, 2025, saw similar external service needs with a closed alley pothole complaint and another closed yard waste request. While the building has experienced some maintenance-related service calls, particularly in the outdoor areas, there are no recorded incidents related to building safety or internal systems. The majority of recent requests appear to be standard municipal service needs rather than indications of underlying building issues.

Risk rating

How 3355 N Kedzie Ave 1'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.
