What does “3-train low-open-violations” mean on this page?

It’s a combined filter: buildings in the Chelsea area that are near the 3 train, plus a low rate of currently open violations based on NYC open records.

Do low open violations mean the building has no problems at all?

Not necessarily. The filter is based on the recorded status of open violations and may not reflect every issue in real time. It’s still worth asking management about current conditions and recent repairs.

Where does the “open violations” signal come from?

The signal is derived from NYC open records. Because it’s data-reported, it can lag real-world changes, so use it to guide questions rather than treat it as a guarantee.
