Initial analysis

The 3-unit residential building at 1330 W George St, located in Chicago's Lake View neighborhood, is a three-parcel, 1898 structure currently owned by Thomas Ward. The building's recent history shows relatively low service request activity, with only one 311 service request filed in the past seven years, specifically regarding a rodent baiting complaint in May 2024, which has since been closed. The property's overall 311 service request count during this period stands at seven, though this includes multiple requests across different parcels. The building has undergone minimal permitted modifications in the past seven years, with only three building permits recorded. The single recent rodent complaint is worth noting as it pertains directly to resident comfort, though it appears to have been addressed through standard municipal response protocols. The overall low frequency of service requests and permits could suggest stable maintenance conditions, though it might also indicate underreporting of issues or limited building modifications.

Risk rating

How 1330 W George St 2Nd'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.
