Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4314 N Ashland Ave in the Lake View neighborhood, owned by Toby Zallman, has been standing since 1900 and has recorded a total of six 311 service requests over the past seven years. The most recent service requests, spanning from 2024 to 2026, primarily consist of routine maintenance and waste management issues, including three yard waste pick-up requests, one graffiti removal request, and one fly dumping complaint. The property's service request history shows a consistent pattern of waste management needs, particularly regarding yard waste, though the closed status of all requests indicates that these issues were addressed promptly. Notably, while the building has had several service requests, there are no documented complaints or incidents that would suggest safety concerns or significantly impact resident experience. The pattern of service requests appears to be typical for an older residential building in an urban area, with no concerning trends or patterns emerging from the available data.

Risk rating

How 4314 N Ashland Ave 2'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
