Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 10979 W Penrose St in Sun Valley, owned by Penrose Properties LLC, was constructed in 2001 and has undergone regular monitoring over the past seven years, with eight building safety inspections recorded. The property has generated a total of 18 service requests through the MyLA311 system during this period, with the most recent activity occurring in November 2024, when three separate service requests were made for illegal dumping cleanup and bulky item removal, all of which were promptly closed. The building has also experienced some infrastructure challenges, as evidenced by an open service request from September 2023 regarding a streetlight issue, though this has not yet been resolved. Looking back further, there were two illegal dumping incidents in 2022, one occurring in October and another in June (for which bulky items were also reported), both of which were successfully addressed within a week or two of reporting. While the frequency of service requests is somewhat concerning, particularly regarding illegal dumping incidents, it's worth noting that all reported issues have been addressed and closed by the appropriate authorities.

Risk rating

How 10979 W Penrose St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of LA County code enforcement data — code enforcement cases, building & safety requests, foreclosure registrations, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that LA County will open a code enforcement case at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

LA County rarely opens code cases 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. LA County has opened cases here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
