Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 4136 N Ashland Ave in Lake View, currently owned by Jaime Figueroa, was constructed in 1906 and has been relatively active in terms of municipal service requests over the past seven years. The most recent pattern of service requests, all occurring in 2025, has primarily focused on yard waste management, with three consecutive requests for yard waste pick-up between late August and September. Prior to these, in April 2025, there was a rodent-related issue that required attention, which is notable given the potential impact on resident comfort and safety. The only other documented service request in this period was a garbage cart maintenance issue from May 2024. The building has maintained a single parcel under its ownership, and while the recent yard waste requests indicate ongoing property maintenance, the earlier rodent complaint suggests there have been some challenges with building systems or environmental conditions that required municipal intervention.

Risk rating

How 4136 N Ashland 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.
