Initial analysis

The 22-unit residential building at 1901 N La Crosse in Chicago's Belmont Cragin neighborhood, owned by Michael A Sztuk, was constructed in 1926 and has been subject to minimal regulatory issues over the past seven years. The property has one recorded building code violation from April 2025, related to a periodic routine inspection that remains open as of October 2023. The building's maintenance history includes a total of 25 service requests through the 311 system during this period, with the most recent activity occurring in 2026, including three open sign repair requests between February and April 2026, suggesting ongoing attention to building signage maintenance. Previous service requests include one closed abandoned vehicle complaint from February 2026 and two information-only calls from August 2025. Notable is that the building has only one recorded building permit in the past seven years, which may indicate either stability in the building's condition or potentially deferred maintenance, though permits may not capture all necessary repairs or improvements.

Risk rating

How 1901 N La Crosse 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.

Neighborhood percentile
2ndpercentile
