Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 4556 W 61st Street in Chicago's West Lawn neighborhood was constructed in 1953 and is currently owned by LSC PROPERTIES LLC. The property's recent environmental track record shows minimal issues, with only one documented complaint in the past seven years. This complaint, recorded on August 9, 2022, involved air pollution concerns and was addressed and resolved within a four-day period, by August 13, 2022. The prompt resolution of this single incident suggests that the management took appropriate action to address the environmental concern, though it is notable as the only official complaint on record for this relatively longstanding property.

Risk rating

How 4556 W 61St 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.
