4737 W Maypole Ave

Austin, Chicago IL 60644 16103180060000 3 units · 1913

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 4737 W Maypole Ave in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by Carl L Evans, has been part of the property records since its construction in 1913. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of 13 service requests through the 311 system, with the majority of these recent requests (six out of seven) occurring in 2025. The most frequent issues reported in 2025 have been related to garbage cart maintenance, with two separate requests for maintenance help on May 2nd and June 5th. There was one fly dumping complaint recorded in December 2025. The earlier part of 2025 saw three information-only calls to the 311 system, and there was a tree trimming request made on January 23, 2025, though it's noted that such requests are no longer being accepted. The relatively high number of recent service requests, particularly regarding garbage cart maintenance, suggests ongoing challenges with waste management at the property, though all reported issues have been marked as closed.

Risk rating

How 4737 W Maypole 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.
