Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 4800 S Wood Street in Chicago's New City neighborhood, owned by COUNTRY HOLDINGS 2 LLC, was constructed in 1906 and has experienced several concerning issues over the past decade. The property currently has 10 unresolved code violations from 2022 and 2025, with a prior resolved violation from March 2021. These open violations, all categorized as complaint-driven inspections, suggest ongoing building maintenance or safety concerns. Additionally, there have been 48 service requests through the 311 system in the past seven years, with the most recent activity in 2026 focusing on street maintenance issues including an open pothole complaint and tree debris cleanup request, though these are municipal rather than building-specific concerns. The building's history includes two founded noise complaints in 2015 and a work order for illegal dumping from 2010, indicating past issues with resident behavior and property maintenance. Notably, there has been only one building permit issued in the past seven years, which raises questions about the extent of building improvements or maintenance work conducted during this period.

Risk rating

How 4800 S Wood 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.

Neighborhood percentile
