Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1333 N Rockwell St in Wicker Park, constructed in 1898, has maintained a relatively clean record over the past seven years, with only one documented building code violation and nine 311 service requests. The sole building violation, which occurred in September 2020, was resolved promptly through a complaint-driven inspection. Most recently, there is an open water lead test kit request from June 2026, marking the only pending service request on record. The building has experienced several service requests in 2025, including a nuisance animal complaint and an injured animal report, both of which were resolved. Additional completed service requests from 2025 include requests for blue recycling cart and garbage cart maintenance, as well as a general information call to 311. The property's relatively low number of violations and service requests over this extended period suggests consistent management, though the recent lead test kit request warrants attention to water quality concerns in the building.

Risk rating

How 1333 N Rockwell 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

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.
