Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 836 W 34th Street in the Bridgeport neighborhood, owned by Norman Jimenez, has a documented history dating back to its construction in 1890. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of five 311 service requests, with the most recent being an open request for a water lead test kit dated September 9, 2025. The property has experienced some water-related issues, as evidenced by a no water complaint filed in August 2024. Two tree planting requests were submitted in spring 2024, both of which have been resolved. The building's permit activity is notably minimal, with only one building permit recorded in the past seven years. While the overall number of service requests is relatively low for a two-unit building of this age, the open water lead test kit request and recent no water complaint suggest potential ongoing water-related concerns.

Risk rating

How 836 W 34Th 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.
