Initial analysis

The 28-unit residential building at 1051 W Dakin in Chicago's Wrigleyville neighborhood, owned by N Jurkovic, is a 1909 structure that has had relatively few municipal service requests over the past seven years, with a total of eight incidents recorded. The most recent activity, occurring in 2026, shows ongoing community engagement with two tree planting requests that remain open, though these do not directly impact the building's habitability or resident experience. The previous two years (2025) saw a series of service requests, including the successful closure of a graffiti removal request and a tree emergency, as well as a report of an injured animal and a sign repair request, all of which were properly addressed by relevant city departments. Notably, the building has maintained a low frequency of service requests, particularly considering its size and age, with no records of any significant safety or maintenance issues directly affecting the building structure or resident safety. The majority of recent requests have been related to exterior and community matters rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 1051 W Dakin 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

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.
