Initial analysis

The three-unit building at 3532 W Congress Parkway, located in Chicago's Garfield Park neighborhood, is a century-old structure built in 1908 and currently owned by Tiffany Williams. Over the past seven years, the property has generated three documented 311 service requests, with all cases having reached a closed status. The most recent incident involved reporting an injured animal in February 2026, while earlier issues included a missed garbage pick-up complaint in June 2025 and a garbage cart maintenance request in October 2024. It's worth noting that these service requests appear to relate primarily to municipal service matters rather than building-specific concerns, and the property has maintained a relatively low frequency of such complaints over the review period, with the most recent incident occurring in early 2026.

Risk rating

How 3532 W Congress Pky 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.
