Initial analysis

The 12-unit residential building at 1840 W Patterson in the North Center neighborhood, owned by J Corboy, has a documented history spanning several years since its construction in 1918. During the past seven years, the property has maintained a relatively low record of major issues, with only one building code violation noted in November 2021 related to a permit inspection, which has since been resolved. The property has experienced a total of 25 service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent activity occurring in June 2026, including multiple tree debris clean-up requests and an open water lead test kit request filed in February 2026. The building's service request history demonstrates recurring seasonal maintenance needs, particularly for yard waste management, as evidenced by multiple closed requests for yard waste pick-up in late 2025. While the property has had regular interactions with city services, primarily for environmental and waste management concerns, there is no recorded pattern of serious building violations or safety-related issues in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1840 W Patterson Chicago'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.

Neighborhood percentile
0thpercentile
