Initial analysis

The property at 2256 N Keystone Ave is a century-old two-unit residential building located in Chicago's Hermosa neighborhood, currently owned by Luz E Rodriguez. The building's documented history over the past seven years shows minimal maintenance and service activity, with only three recorded 311 service requests in this period. The most recent of these, filed in January 2026, pertains to the Shared Cost Sidewalk Program and remains open, indicating potential ongoing infrastructure improvements. Prior to this, there were two separate instances of graffiti requiring removal in August 2025, though both of these cases have been successfully closed. Given the building's age and limited service requests on record, the property's documented history shows relatively few maintenance issues over this period, though it's important to note that this only represents documented service requests and may not capture all aspects of the building's condition.

Risk rating

How 2256 N Keystone 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.
