Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 1005 N Oakley Ave in the Ukrainian Village neighborhood, owned by Anthony J Schmitz, was constructed in 1928 and has had a relatively stable ownership record. Over the past seven years, there have been a total of 36 service requests filed through the 311 system, with the most recent cluster of incidents occurring in early 2026. The majority of these recent requests (six out of seven) have been related to graffiti removal, with several incidents occurring in close succession between March and April 2026. Additionally, there have been recurring issues with potholes in the alleyway near the property, with complaints filed in both April and May 2026. While the building's age is typical for its neighborhood, it's noteworthy that the recent service requests indicate a pattern of environmental maintenance issues in the immediate vicinity, particularly concerns about graffiti that required repeated intervention over a short period of time.

Risk rating

How 1005 N Oakley 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.
