Initial analysis

The 24-unit residential building at 2208 W Thome in Chicago's West Ridge neighborhood, owned by Jerko Grubisic, has been standing since 1930 and is currently under scrutiny due to multiple concerning patterns in its maintenance records. Over the past seven years, the property has accumulated a total of 13 building violations and 26 service requests, with a particularly notable cluster of rodent-related issues in recent months. Between December 2024 and September 2025, there were five documented rodent complaints, three of which were filed within a three-week period in August 2025 alone. The property has also required sewer cleaning inspections and has faced at least one building violation in the past year. While the building's age and size are typical for the neighborhood, the recent surge in pest-related complaints and maintenance issues suggests a pattern that may affect resident comfort. The property's service request history shows some attention to addressing these issues, as evidenced by the closure status of all recent complaints, though the frequency of these incidents raises concerns about ongoing maintenance challenges.

Risk rating

How 2208 W Thome Chicago'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.
