Initial analysis

The three-unit building at 2450 W Arthington St, located in the Little Italy/UIC neighborhood, is a 128-year-old property currently owned by Helen Ji. The building's recent history, particularly in 2026, has been marked by multiple concerns regarding leaks, with three separate reports filed in May and June of that year, including one open case as of June 2026. The building's maintenance record over the past seven years shows limited engagement with city services, totaling only nine service requests, which is relatively low for a building of its age and size. In addition to the leak-related issues, there was one report regarding garbage cart maintenance in January 2026, and two information-only inquiries in December 2025. While the number of service requests is not exceptionally high, the pattern of repeated leak reports in 2026 suggests emerging water-related maintenance concerns that could impact resident comfort and building integrity.

Risk rating

How 2450 W Arthington 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.
