Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 1433 N Ridgeway Ave in Humboldt Park, owned by Todd M Glover, was constructed in 1909 and has experienced several notable events over the past seven years. Most significantly, in September 2022, the building underwent a series of complaint-driven inspections resulting in six recorded violations, though all were subsequently resolved. More recently, there has been increased activity regarding municipal service requests, with five documented incidents between September 2025 and February 2026. These recent requests include a sidewalk inspection (currently open), two finance parking code enforcement reviews, a missed garbage pick-up complaint, and a weed removal request, most of which have been resolved or closed. The building's permit activity has been minimal during this period, with only one permit recorded in the past seven years. While the 2022 violations and 2025 service requests warrant attention, it's notable that the majority of historical violations were addressed promptly and that recent complaints have primarily related to external maintenance and city services rather than structural or safety issues within the building itself.

Risk rating

How 1433 N Ridgeway 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.
