Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4339 W Lake Street in Garfield Park, owned by Nancy C Aquino, was constructed in 1913 and has experienced several notable events in recent years. Most concerning are two unresolved building code violations from February 2020, which originated from a complaint-driven inspection and remain open as of the current date. The property has generated 11 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years, with the most recent issue being related to garbage cart maintenance in January 2026. There are currently two active service requests from April 2025 regarding sidewalk inspections that remain unresolved. The building's maintenance record shows a mix of resolved and open issues, including a closed stray animal complaint (December 2025), a closed street cleaning request (April 2025), and a resolved alley pothole complaint (April 2025). The relatively high number of service requests in recent years suggests ongoing maintenance needs, particularly regarding sidewalk conditions as evidenced by the two active inspection requests from April 2025.

Risk rating

How 4339 W Lake 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.
