Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1930 W Crystal Street in Wicker Park, owned by Dennis Stefancic and constructed in 1891, has a relatively modest record of service requests and violations over the past seven years. The property has experienced multiple fly dumping incidents in May 2026, along with a pothole complaint and a parking enforcement request during the same period. Additional service requests include a graffiti removal (December 2025) and a garbage cart maintenance issue (June 2025). The building's environmental enforcement history shows two notable violations in May 2021 related to construction site cleanliness, specifically regarding fabric mesh and chain link fence issues, each resulting in a $700 fine and marked as "LIABPLEA" in the disposition. Since these environmental violations occurred in 2021 and the most recent service requests primarily relate to external neighborhood issues rather than building conditions, the property's recent management appears to have focused more on addressing community matters, though the limited number of building permits (only 1 in the past seven years) may warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 1930 W Crystal 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.
