Initial analysis

The seven-unit residential building at 6454 N Northwest Highway in Edison Park has been standing since 1964 and is currently recorded under the ownership of 6454 Northwest Highway LLC. The property's recent history shows a cluster of maintenance concerns in 2020, with six complaint-driven inspection violations occurring in February and two in September, all of which have been resolved. The building's more recent record from 2025 shows a series of infrastructure and service-related issues, including three water-related complaints (low water pressure and no water), two pothole complaints (one in the street and one in the alley), a sidewalk inspection request, and a rodent-related concern, all of which have been officially closed. The only environmental complaint on record dates back to 2008 and pertains to noise. The building's documented issues suggest an ongoing pattern of infrastructure and maintenance challenges, with the most recent concerns focusing primarily on water service reliability and pest control.

Risk rating

How 6454 N Northwest Chicago'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.
