Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4243 South Sacramento Avenue in Brighton Park, owned by Daniel Miranda, has experienced several noteworthy incidents in recent years, with the most significant being an environmental enforcement action in 2021. This property, constructed in 1922, was found to have committed an air pollution violation in August 2021, resulting in a $1,000 fine through an administrative hearing process, though the violation was resolved within three days of the initial complaint. The building's maintenance history over the past seven years shows relatively few issues, with only two logged 311 service requests in 2025 - one regarding a street light outage and another concerning garbage cart maintenance, both of which have since been resolved. While the building's record includes one environmental complaint and enforcement action, these incidents appear to be isolated, as there have been no repeat violations or similar incidents in recent years. The relatively low number of service requests and complaints over this extended period could indicate stable property conditions, though it's worth noting that the recorded incidents are somewhat limited in addressing the full scope of the building's maintenance history.

Risk rating

How 4243 S Sacramento 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.

Neighborhood percentile
99thpercentile
