Initial analysis

The property at 4351 W Diversey in Chicago's Hermosa neighborhood is a 1928 building currently owned by Devon Bank Trust 1247. The building has experienced several concerning patterns in recent years, most notably emerging from November 2024 when six unresolved complaint-driven inspections were recorded, marking an unprecedented cluster of open violations in the building's recent history. Over the past seven years, the building has accumulated a total of six building code violations, 21 service requests through the 311 system, and three building permits. The 311 service requests show a pattern of maintenance issues, including multiple graffiti removal needs (with five such requests between 2025-2026) and infrastructure concerns such as a traffic signal complaint (open since April 2026) and a pothole issue (resolved in February 2026).

Risk rating

How 4351 W Diversey Chicago'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.
