Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The property at 1643 N Whipple St 2 is a two-unit residential building located in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, built in 1918 and currently owned by Leonor Valentin. The building's service record over the past seven years reveals significant ongoing concerns with rodent activity, particularly in the first half of 2026, with three rodent-related incidents reported between April and June of that year, including one unresolved complaint that remains open. The rodent issue appears to be a persistent problem, with five documented complaints about rat activity between October 2025 and April 2026, though most of these were eventually closed. Additionally, there was one report of fly dumping in April 2026 that has been resolved. The concentration of rodent complaints, particularly in 2026, suggests an ongoing pest control challenge in the building or surrounding area, though it's worth noting that most of these complaints were addressed through the appropriate channels, with the exception of the most recent report.

Risk rating

How 1643 N Whipple St 2'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.
