Initial analysis

The two-unit, 1891 residential building at 1916 N Whipple St in Logan Square, owned by Rene Rodriguez, has experienced several notable issues in recent years, particularly relating to pest control. Most concerning are the three rodent-related complaints filed in 2025, with two occurring just one month apart in May and June, suggesting an ongoing infestation issue that required multiple interventions. The building's maintenance record shows some attention to street infrastructure with a street light complaint resolved in May 2024, and a noise complaint that was resolved in July 2022. The property has accumulated a total of 14 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years and has recorded four building violations in the same period, though specific details of these violations are not mentioned in the available data. While the building's age is considerable at 132 years, the most pressing current concern appears to be the recurring rodent issues, with three complaints filed within a six-month period from May to November 2025, representing the most recent activity on record for this property.

Risk rating

How 1916 N Whipple St'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.
