Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1331 W George St in Chicago's Lake View neighborhood, owned by Eric Peterson, is an 1888 structure that has experienced several weather-related maintenance challenges over the past two years. The most recent service request, still open as of May 2026, concerns garbage cart maintenance. Notably, between December 2025 and January 2026, there were multiple complaints about winter weather conditions, including an uncleared sidewalk complaint and an ice/snow removal request. The property experienced two separate water-related issues in April 2026, both of which have since been resolved. The building's service request history, consisting of 11 total requests over the past seven years, shows a concentration of maintenance issues during winter months, particularly in late 2025 through early 2026, with all but one of the most recent requests being successfully addressed.

Risk rating

How 1331 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

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

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

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

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

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