Initial analysis

The 6-unit residential building at 2755 N Menard Ave in the Belmont Cragin neighborhood, owned by GenowefaSkuza, has a concerning pattern of unresolved issues in recent years, particularly in 2023 when four complaint-driven violations were recorded on March 14, all of which remain open as of October 2023. The building's maintenance history over the past seven years shows a total of four building code violations, though specific details about these violations are not provided in the records. The property has also experienced multiple incidents requiring municipal intervention, with eight 311 service requests in the past seven years, predominantly in 2024 with four graffiti removal requests filed between June and November. Other service requests from 2024 include a fly dumping complaint and a rodent baiting/rat complaint, both of which were resolved. A tree emergency was recorded in 2026, which is relatively recent compared to other incidents. Additionally, there is an environmental complaint on record from 2007 regarding toxic hazardous materials, though this predates the current ownership's tenure and is not directly linked to present conditions.

Risk rating

How 2755 N Menard 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

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.
