Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The 8-unit residential building at 3929 N Southport in Wrigleyville, constructed in 1927, has experienced several noteworthy events in recent years that merit attention. Most significantly, there are currently three open building violations on record from 2022 - two related to complaint-driven inspections on January 7 and one from a periodic routine inspection on July 20, all of which remain unresolved as of October 2023. The building's service request history shows 22 incidents reported through the 311 system over the past seven years, though it's worth noting that many of these requests appear to pertain to external issues not directly related to the building's condition or management, such as street maintenance (including a pothole complaint and two water-on-street complaints), urban greenery (including a tree planting request), and even a consumer fraud complaint.

Risk rating

How 3929 N Southport 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
9thpercentile
