Initial analysis

The 6-unit apartment building at 3748 W Division St in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, owned by Division Hamlin Apt, was constructed in 1925 and has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most concerning are five unresolved building code violations dating back to July 23, 2021, all stemming from complaint-driven inspections, which suggest ongoing regulatory compliance challenges that remain unaddressed as of now. In addition to these building code violations, there have been six 311 service requests in the past seven years, with the most recent requests focused on external issues such as street maintenance and public space concerns. These external service requests, all of which have been closed, include complaints about potholes in both the alley and street in September 2025, three graffiti removal requests (one in September 2025 and two others in 2024), and a street light outage complaint in November 2024. While the 311 service requests demonstrate some attention to neighborhood maintenance issues, the persistent and unresolved building code violations from 2021 represent the most significant current concern regarding the property's condition and regulatory compliance status.

Risk rating

How 3748 W Division St'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.
