Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3334 N Kenneth Ave in Chicago's Irving Park neighborhood, owned by Richard Valencia, has experienced several noteworthy events over the past two years. Most concerning is an unresolved permit-related inspection violation from October 2024 that remains open as of the current date. The property has faced multiple animal-related issues, with three separate incidents reported between March and June 2025, including two vicious animal complaints and one nuisance animal complaint. Additionally, there was a rodent baiting complaint in May 2025, suggesting potential pest control challenges in the vicinity. A sewer cleaning inspection request was logged and subsequently closed in June 2025, indicating some infrastructure maintenance attention was required. Notably, the building's records show relatively few documented issues over the past seven years, with only one building violation (now closed), one 311 service request (now closed), and one building permit (with the current unresolved violation) during this period, though the concentration of issues in 2025 indicates a recent uptick in service requests and complaints.

Risk rating

How 3334 N Kenneth 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.
