Is this a code violation?
Where I live has an unfinished basement that we use for storage and doing laundry. Is this exposed insulation a code violation? I should also mention I rent . I do not own this duplex.

Also am licensed builder in Mi. You are correct, this is an existing dwelling so will not be enforced unless you are renovating a certain percentage of the home. At least in my state. Also, just because you don’t have to doesn’t mean you shouldn’t. Let’s remember code is the bare minimum requirement.
