Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3555 W Dickens Ave, located in Chicago's Logan Square neighborhood, has been under the ownership of Elliot Dicks since its construction in 1902. The two-story structure has experienced several noteworthy events over the past seven years, with a total of five documented 311 service requests. Most prominently, there appears to be an ongoing rodent control issue in the vicinity, with three rat baiting complaints filed between April and October 2024, and one more recent rodent complaint recorded in October 2025, all of which have been resolved. Additionally, there were two abandoned vehicle complaints filed in April 2024, both of which were successfully addressed. While the building's overall service request history is relatively low for its age and location, the recurring nature of the rodent complaints suggests this has been a notable concern for the property in recent years, though it's worth noting that all reported issues have reached a closed status in the city's records.

Risk rating

How 3555 W Dickens 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.
