Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4741 W Fulton Street in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by Sophia Williams Scott, has experienced several notable events over the past seven years. Most concerning are three unresolved violation notices recorded on February 11, 2025, all stemming from complaint-driven inspections, representing the only building code violations on record during this period. The building's 311 service request history shows a total of 11 recorded incidents between 2015 and 2025, with the most recent requests occurring between January and December 2025. These service requests primarily related to municipal services, including two tree trimming requests, tree debris cleanup, and two reports of abandoned vehicles, all of which have been resolved. Additionally, there was one request for garbage cart maintenance in December 2025 that was marked as closed. While the building has experienced multiple service requests, the most pressing current concern appears to be the three unresolved building code violations from 2025, pending resolution or further inspection.

Risk rating

How 4741 W Fulton 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

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.
