Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1016 N Rockwell St in Humboldt Park, dating back to 1900 and currently owned by Christopher Bartek, has maintained a relatively low number of formal complaints and service requests over the past seven years. The property has one unresolved building code violation dating from August 2019, which stands out as the only open compliance issue on record. The building has generated seven 311 service requests since 2016, with the most recent cluster of activity occurring between 2025-2026, including reports of building violations, tree debris needing cleanup, graffiti, missed garbage pickups, and a rodent issue, all of which have been resolved. An environmental complaint regarding construction and demolition activities was filed in 2020 and was found to be valid, with resolution achieved by February 2021. Despite these incidents, the overall record shows no major patterns of repeated violations or service requests, though the relatively recent building violations and pest control issues may warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 1016 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.

Neighborhood percentile
67thpercentile

Out of 6211 buildings in this neighborhood, 2050 are predicted to be safer.
