Buildings with low open violation rates near the BX19 bus in Soundview

It’s a filter based on open violation rates from NYC open records, intended to help you compare buildings with fewer active items at the time of the dataset.

Treat it as a location/commute shortcut. Shortlist by both filters first, then verify walk time, transfer options, and whether the building entrance is practical for your schedule.

They’re based on NYC open data and can lag real-world conditions. Use the filter as a starting point, then ask the building directly about the current status of repairs and whether anything new has come up.

Ask what violations (if any) are still open, what’s been completed, expected timelines for remaining items, and who to contact for updates. Also ask about preventive maintenance and inspection frequency.

No. A low rate reduces the likelihood of active issues at the time of the data, but it doesn’t guarantee unit-level or day-to-day condition. Still inspect and confirm details before committing.

Reviews and renter Q&A add the “how it feels” layer: maintenance responsiveness, building upkeep, and communication. Pair that with the violation filter, then ask targeted questions based on what renters reported.
