Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3351 W Division St in Humboldt Park, owned by Carlos Lopez, is a 130-year-old structure that has experienced significant recent activity in terms of violations and service requests. Most notably, on August 25, 2025, six open violations were recorded following a complaint-driven inspection, marking the most serious current concerns about the property's condition. The owner has a concerning pattern of unresolved issues, with a total of 22 building violations and 28 service requests across four parcels owned by Lopez over the past seven years. More recent history shows a cluster of service requests in late 2025, including rodent control, sanitation code violations, and two business complaints, all of which have been closed. Prior to these recent developments, the building's record shows minimal permitted work, with only one building permit obtained in the past seven years. Of historical note, there was a hazardous materials complaint dated October 12, 1995, though no subsequent action appears on record for this issue. The property's documented history suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges, particularly regarding the recent cluster of unresolved violations.

Risk rating

How 3351 W Division St 1'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.
