Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 3644 W Lawrence Ave in Chicago's Albany Park neighborhood, owned by the Henry S. Kim Trustee, has been standing since 1938. The property's recent maintenance record shows relatively minimal activity over the past seven years, with only one building violation documented during this period. The 311 service request history reveals three external maintenance issues were reported and resolved: a graffiti removal request in February 2026, an alley pothole complaint in July 2025, and a garbage cart maintenance issue in July 2024. While these incidents were all appropriately addressed through city services, it's worth noting that these external maintenance requests pertain to areas outside the building itself. The overall record indicates a low frequency of service requests and violations, though the data available only goes through October 2023, with some 2024 and 2025 requests possibly appearing as future-dated entries in the system.

Risk rating

How 3644 W Lawrence Ave'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
