The two-unit residential building at 4215 W Kamerling Ave in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, owned by Antonio Trujillo and constructed in 1913, is currently facing multiple unresolved issues as of April 2025.

The building has a documented history of code violations over the past seven years, totaling 13, along with 16 service requests to 311. There have been two recent street light outage complaints in March 2026, and earlier in 2026, the property requested a water lead test kit, which was subsequently closed.

Risk rating

How 4215 W Kamerling Ave'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.
