Initial analysis

The property at 3000 N Cicero, located in the Belmont Cragin neighborhood and owned by Leong Management, is a 1928 construction that has experienced several notable issues in recent years. The most significant ongoing concern is a set of three unresolved building code violations from June 2020, resulting from a complaint-driven inspection that remains open to date. The building has generated a total of eight 311 service requests over the past seven years, with the most recent incident occurring in February 2026 involving a street pothole. The service requests have primarily focused on exterior maintenance issues, including graffiti removal (in January 2026 and December 2024), fly dumping incidents (January 2026 and January 2025), and an uncleared snow complaint regarding the sidewalk (December 2025). Additionally, there was a verified environmental complaint related to air pollution in January 2025 that was promptly resolved within one day. The building's documented issues suggest ongoing challenges with property maintenance and environmental compliance, with particular attention needed to address the long-standing building code violations from 2020.

Risk rating

How 3000 N Cicero'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.
