Unlock complete reportThe 8-unit residential building at 4910 W Armitage in Chicago's Belmont Cragin neighborhood, owned by J Czajka, has been standing since 1926 and is currently facing significant unresolved issues that merit attention. Most notably, there are six open building code violations stemming from a complaint-driven inspection on October 23, 2021, and an additional unresolved violation from February 28, 2020. While the building's 311 service request history shows activity across various concerns, approximately half of the 59 recorded service requests in the past seven years are directly related to building maintenance or municipal services affecting residents. Recent concerns include two missed garbage pick-up complaints in October 2025 and other municipal service issues such as street lighting problems and parking code enforcement that were resolved through normal channels. An environmental complaint about illegal dumping was recorded back in September 2005, though this appears to be an isolated incident in the historical record. The persistence of the 2021 building code violations, which remain open as of the latest data, suggests ongoing compliance challenges that have not been addressed for an extended period.

How 4910 W Armitage 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
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.
Out of 4437 buildings in this neighborhood, 4437 are predicted to be safer.
