Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 3735 S Wood Street in Chicago's McKinley Park neighborhood, owned by J & R Pryma, dates back to 1894 and has experienced several notable events in recent years. The property had two permit-related violations in December 2019, specifically on the 6th and 12th, though both issues were resolved and marked as complied. More recently, there have been multiple service requests through the city’s 311 system, with the most recent being a garbage cart maintenance request from April 2026. As of now, there is an open request for a water lead test kit from December 2025, which warrants attention given the potential health implications. Other service requests include a tree trim request (April 2025), which is no longer being accepted, and an alley light out complaint from November 2024, both of which have been closed. While the building's violation record shows compliance with past issues, the open water lead test kit request stands out as the most significant current concern regarding resident safety.

Risk rating

How 3735 S Wood 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.
