AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 1347 W Ancona St in West Town, owned by Deypika Singh since its construction in 1882, has experienced several notable issues in recent years that may affect tenant quality of life and safety. Most concerning is an open building code violation from June 2022, which remains unresolved as of the latest records. The property has also faced multiple water quality concerns, with two Water Lead Test Kit requests initiated in April 2025 - one of which remains open - along with a closed water quality complaint from the same period. The building has experienced recurring pest control issues, with two rodent-related service requests in late 2025 and one sanitation code violation currently under investigation. While there was a permit-related building code violation in December 2019 that was resolved, and an illegal dumping complaint from 2018 that was addressed, the most pressing concerns appear to be related to water quality and pest management.

Risk rating

How 1347 W Ancona 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

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.

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