Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 3548 S Hoyne Ave in McKinley Park, owned by Pei Rong Zhao, is an 1888 structure that has experienced several notable events over the past seven years. The property has recorded a total of 19 service requests by the owner, with three building violations on record. The most significant cluster of recent activity relates to waste management and environmental concerns, with five garbage cart maintenance requests and one rodent-related complaint recorded between May and November 2025. The building has also required three additional service interventions that fall outside this specific pattern, including a blue recycling cart request and a finance parking code enforcement review in July and May 2025, respectively. Despite these service requests, the property has maintained relatively low overall complaint levels compared to typical urban standards, with all reported issues being addressed and closed by city services. The building's permit history shows four permits were obtained in the past seven years, though specific details about their nature and impact are not included in the record.

Risk rating

How 3548 S Hoyne 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

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.
