Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3409 N Paulina St in the Lake View neighborhood, owned by Daniel Latino, has a relatively limited but noteworthy service request history over recent years. Built in 1909, this property has recorded a total of nine 311 service requests in the past seven years, with the majority occurring in 2025-2026 related to graffiti removal - five such incidents were reported between November 2025 and April 2026. The building's service request history also includes one dead animal pick-up request in April 2026 and an injured animal report in April 2025, both of which have been resolved. The property owner has maintained an active ownership structure across eight parcels and has only one building permit recorded in the past seven years. While the building's age and location in an urban environment are typical for the neighborhood, the concentration of graffiti removal requests in a short timeframe may warrant attention to the property's immediate surroundings.

Risk rating

How 3409 N Paulina 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.
