Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 4310 W Cermak Rd in North Lawndale, owned by L Mitchell, is a century-old property constructed in 1915. Over the past seven years, the building has generated six service requests, with the most recent cluster of issues occurring in 2026, where there were two water-related complaints and a sewer cleaning inspection request in May, all of which have been closed. Prior to these, there was a period of tree maintenance concerns with two requests in February 2025 and one in March 2025, though it's worth noting that the city has indicated that tree trim requests are no longer being accepted. The only building permit recorded in the past seven years was issued in 2021. While the building's service request history shows regular maintenance and infrastructure concerns typical of an older property, particularly in the exterior and utility systems, it's important to note that all reported issues have been formally closed, suggesting they were addressed at the time.

Risk rating

How 4310 W Cermak Rd'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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
