Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 1928 N Pulaski Rd in the Hermosa neighborhood, owned by Oscar Arroyo, has a substantial history of maintenance and safety-related issues over the past several years. Built in 1898, this property has accumulated 10 building code violations and 13 service requests through the 311 system since 2016, with all violations remaining open and unresolved as of March 2026. The most concerning cluster of issues centers around periodic routine inspections, with six violations recorded in both March and October of 2026, suggesting potential systemic or maintenance oversight problems. The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, evidenced by multiple sewer-related incidents in April 2026, including cleaning inspections and water in the basement complaints, as well as a sewer cave-in inspection request. Additionally, there have been concerns about pest control, with a rodent baiting complaint logged in October 2025, and other environmental issues such as a fly dumping incident in August 2025. While all 311 service requests have been marked as closed, the pattern of unresolved building violations, particularly the recent clustering of inspection-related citations, indicates ongoing compliance and maintenance challenges at the property.

Risk rating

How 1928 N Pulaski Rd'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.
