Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1905 N Kenneth Ave in Hermosa, owned by Ross Kooperman, is a 128-year-old structure dating back to 1895. The property's recent history shows relatively minimal activity, with only one recorded 311 service request in the past seven years, though the owner has submitted three building permits during the same period. The only documented 311 service request in recent records was for garbage cart maintenance in September 2025, which has since been closed. The building's violation record shows three building violations in the past seven years, though without specific details on the nature or resolution of these infractions. While the six-parcel property owned by Kooperman has generated a relatively low volume of 311 service requests (27 in total) and three building permits in the last seven years, it is worth noting that the most recent service request for garbage cart maintenance occurred in September 2025, suggesting that this particular issue required attention despite being the only service request in the recent record period.

Risk rating

How 1905 N Kenneth 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.
