Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 634 N Homan Ave in Humboldt Park, owned by Chris R Bacon, is a 130-year-old property that has experienced limited issues over the past seven years according to city records. There are two documented building code violations during this period, with the most recent complaint-driven inspection from February 2023 remaining open and unresolved, representing a notable current concern for residents. The second violation, which was permit-related, occurred in June 2020 and has since been resolved. The property has generated 14 service requests through the 311 system in the past seven years, with the most recent request regarding garbage cart maintenance in December 2025, though there is a discrepancy regarding the year since it appears to be in the future. A significant cluster of six identical requests related to finance parking code enforcement was made in October 2025, all of which have been closed, suggesting this may have been a concerted effort by the property owner or residents to address specific parking-related issues in the vicinity.

Risk rating

How 634 N Homan 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

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.
