Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3603 W George St in Chicago's Avondale neighborhood, owned by TFG MGMT and George Serie, has been in operation since 1902. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of seven documented service requests through the city's 311 system, with the most recent complaint occurring in December 2025 regarding an uncleared snow-covered sidewalk. The property has experienced recurring issues with waste management equipment, evidenced by three separate requests for garbage cart maintenance (in May 2025 and September 2024), and requests for a blue recycling cart (also in May 2025). Water quality monitoring appears to be a current concern, with an open request for a water lead test kit initiated in August 2025, representing the only active service request on record. Other service calls have included an open fire hydrant complaint in January 2025, which has since been resolved. While the number of service requests is relatively low for a building of this age and size, the nature of the open water quality testing request may be of particular note to prospective tenants.

Risk rating

How 3603 W George St'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.
