AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 4554 S Richmond St in Brighton Park, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Raul Andrade, has maintained a relatively low volume of 311 service requests over the past seven years, with only three requests directly associated with this property. The most recent complaint was filed in May 2026 regarding rodent issues, which was subsequently closed. Prior to that, in October 2024, there were two service requests on the same day related to waste management - one for a blue recycling cart and another for garbage cart maintenance, both of which were also closed. On a broader scale, the owner, who holds six parcels in total, has had a far greater number of service requests filed across all properties, totaling 41 requests in the past seven years, though specific details of these records are not provided in the building data summary. The building's service request history shows a pattern typical of urban properties, with a particular focus on waste management issues and one incident of rodent concern, though these occurrences appear to be sporadic rather than systemic.

Risk rating

How 4554 S Richmond 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

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.
