Initial analysis

The three-story, seven-unit residential building at 2940 W Augusta Boulevard in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, owned by 2940 Augusta LLC, has a documented history dating back to 1899. The property's most significant recent activity consists of two unresolved periodic routine inspection violations recorded simultaneously on December 26, 2023, which may warrant attention regarding building safety or maintenance protocols. While the building's documented history over the past seven years shows relatively few incidents overall, with only two building code violations and two 311 service requests in total, it's notable that these inspection violations were recorded shortly before the end of 2023. Two 311 service requests were filed in 2025 - one regarding a city vehicle sticker violation and another concerning a blue recycling cart issue - though both were subsequently closed, these requests appear to pertain to municipal service matters rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 2940 W Augusta 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile
2ndpercentile
