AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 4517 S Christiana Ave, located in Chicago's Brighton Park neighborhood, is a 1923 structure currently owned by Michal Czopczyc. Over the past seven years, there have been three recorded 311 service requests associated with the property and its surrounding area, all of which occurred in 2024. The most recent service request, made in December 2024, was regarding a street light outage, followed by another street light complaint in May of the same year. Between these lighting issues, there was a report of an alley pothole in July 2024. All three issues have been closed, indicating that the city or appropriate authorities addressed the concerns. While the building's service request history is relatively limited, it's worth noting that all recorded complaints in 2024 were related to outdoor infrastructure rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 4517 S Christiana 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

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.
