AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 3040 W 54th Place in Gage Park, owned by Maria E Vidal, was constructed in 1959 and has had a total of 12 service requests logged through the 311 system over the past seven years. The most recent and currently active issue, as of June 2026, involves a tree emergency and falls under the jurisdiction of the Alderman's office. The property has experienced notable water-related challenges, with two consecutive complaints about basement water issues recorded in August 2025, though these were classified as closed in the system. The building's waste management infrastructure has received attention, with three recycling cart-related service requests between 2025 and 2026, including two blue recycling cart requests in August 2025 and November 2025, one of which was processed through the Alderman's office. The most recent waste-related issue, a garbage cart maintenance request, was addressed and closed in May 2026. While the service request history indicates some recurring issues with waste management and recent concerns about trees, it's worth noting that the majority of the logged issues have been resolved, as evidenced by their closed status in the 311 system.

Risk rating

How 3040 W 54Th Pl 2'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.

Neighborhood percentile
