AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 3637 S Paulina St in McKinley Park is an 1888 structure currently owned by Robert G Kubitz. The property's recent service request history, covering 2024-2025, shows a pattern of routine municipal service interactions rather than significant building-specific issues. The most recent concerns involve exterior lighting and tree maintenance, with an alley light out complaint filed in October 2025. The fall of 2024 marked a cluster of service requests related to waste management, including multiple blue recycling cart maintenance inquiries and a garbage cart maintenance issue. Earlier in 2025, the property owner submitted a tree trimming request, though it appears this type of request is no longer being accepted. The building has no recorded major violations or safety concerns in the available data, and the total of eight service requests over seven years suggests relatively low maintenance or operational issues when compared to typical urban residential buildings.

Risk rating

How 3637 S Paulina St Hse'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.
