Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4918 W Washington Blvd in the Austin neighborhood, owned by Juan L Rodriguez, is a century-old property constructed in 1911. The building's service request history over the past seven years reveals several concerning patterns, particularly in recent years. Most notably, in April 2026, three separate service requests were documented on the same day, including complaints about rodent issues and fly dumping, along with an open sewer cleaning inspection request that remains unresolved. This spike in issues follows a similar rodent complaint in October 2025, suggesting potential ongoing pest management challenges in the area. The property has also faced infrastructure concerns, with a street light outage reported in April 2025 and an encounter with garbage cart maintenance issues in October 2025. While the building has had a total of six service requests in the past seven years, the concentration of recent complaints about pests, waste management, and infrastructure problems may indicate emerging challenges that warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 4918 W Washington Blvd 02'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.
