Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3505 N Albany Ave in Chicago's Avondale neighborhood, owned by Roberto Moreno, was constructed in 1991 and has had 16 documented service requests by the owner across two parcels. The property has experienced several street-related issues in recent years, with four separate pothole complaints filed between November 2025 and February 2026, all of which have been resolved. A water lead test kit request was submitted in April 2024 and currently remains open, which may warrant attention to water quality concerns. One unusual incident was reported in May 2026 involving a vicious animal complaint, though this was subsequently closed. While the building's overall service request history is not extensive for its age and size, the presence of multiple pothole complaints and the open lead water testing request could be of interest to current or prospective residents.

Risk rating

How 3505 N Albany 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.
