Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4415 N Hamilton Ave in Lincoln Square, owned by Darla A Jansen, was constructed in 1914 and has experienced relatively few issues over the past decade. The property has generated a total of nine 311 service requests over the past seven years, with a notable concentration of recent activity in 2025-2026 related primarily to tree management. There have been three tree-related requests in 2025-2026, including one closed tree trimming request and two open tree planting requests (one still pending as of January 2026). Other incidents in 2025 included a closed graffiti removal request and a closed vicious animal complaint, both of which were resolved. A tree removal inspection request was also closed in May 2025, suggesting some ongoing attention to arboreal matters around the property. The building's historical record includes one environmental complaint from September 2002, though the nature of this complaint is unspecified in the available data. The pattern of service requests indicates regular maintenance of the property's immediate surroundings, with particular focus on tree management and occasional property maintenance issues, though nothing suggests persistent problems with building systems or safety concerns within the structure itself.

Risk rating

How 4415 N Hamilton 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
