Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 14644 W Polk St in Sylmar, owned by Michael A and Lourdes V Castillo, was constructed in 1955 and has had relatively few documented issues over the past seven years. The property's service request history from MyLA311 shows a recurring pattern of bulky item disposal requests, with 5 such requests recorded between December 2019 and March 2024, all of which were promptly closed within a week of being submitted. The only other documented incident was a graffiti removal request in August 2021, which was also addressed on the same day it was reported. The consistent nature of the bulky item requests suggests regular maintenance or disposal needs in this area, though none of the recorded incidents indicate any significant safety concerns or major resident impact.

Risk rating

How 14644 W Polk 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.
