Initial analysis

The five-unit residential building at 4363 N Lincoln Ave in Chicago's North Center neighborhood, owned by 4363 N LINCOLN LLC, has a documented history since its construction in 1916. The property has experienced two building code violations in the past seven years, both of which remain unresolved as of 2023: one from April 2022 related to a complaint-driven inspection, and another from September 2019 connected to a permit-related inspection. The building has generated a total of 42 service requests through the city's 311 system over the past seven years, with the most recent activity occurring in May 2026, including multiple traffic signal-related complaints and a graffiti removal request, all of which have been resolved. While the frequency of traffic signal complaints is notable, these are external to the building itself. The property's permit activity is limited, with only two permits recorded in the past seven years. An older environmental complaint from 2006 regarding air pollution was documented, though this predates the current ownership period.

Risk rating

How 4363 N Lincoln 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.
