Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2649 W George St in Avondale, owned by Martha Bantista, dates back to 1895 and has generated seven documented service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years. The most recent issue, an open sign repair request from March 2026, marks the only outstanding service request on record. The property has experienced several maintenance and service needs since 2024, including a rodent baiting complaint in October 2024 and street light pole damage in July 2024, both of which were resolved. In 2025, the building encountered various municipal service needs including yard waste pick-up, blue recycling cart services, and an issue with a street light outage, all of which were properly closed after resolution. While the building has had its share of maintenance and service requests, particularly in 2024 and 2025, the nature of these requests appears to be typical for an older multi-unit building in Chicago, covering standard municipal services such as waste management and street lighting.

Risk rating

How 2649 W George 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
