Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family building at 3547 W 26th Street in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood, owned by Ada Alicia Ramirez, has a century-long history dating back to 1912. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of nine service requests through the city's 311 system, with the most recent cluster of incidents occurring between late 2025 and early 2026. A concerning pattern of rodent-related issues is evident, with three rat complaints logged between December 2025 and February 2026, suggesting an ongoing pest control challenge in the vicinity. Additionally, there was a no water complaint in January 2026, which directly impacts basic utility service to residents. Other documented incidents include a garbage cart maintenance issue and an abandoned vehicle complaint in August 2025. While all reported incidents have been marked as closed, the frequency of rodent-related complaints and the water service issue in early 2026 stand out as notable concerns regarding resident comfort and building maintenance.

Risk rating

How 3547 W 26Th 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

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.
