Initial analysis

The property at 1610 S Sawyer Ave in North Lawndale, owned by Connie Mae Mann, is an 1888 construction that has experienced notable building maintenance issues in recent months. Most significantly, there are two unresolved building code violations as of June 2024 that were triggered by complaints, though the specific nature of these complaints is not detailed in the records. The building has generated an unusual cluster of plumbing-related concerns in mid-2024, with three plumbing violation reports between June 3 and June 12, all of which have been closed. Additional service requests during this period include a general building violation and a 311 information-only call, both from June and September 2024 respectively, with the former being closed as well. It's important to note that while the building has two documented violations and eight 311 service requests in the past seven years, the majority of these recent service requests have been concentrated in a limited time frame in 2024, suggesting either a recent escalation in building maintenance issues or increased reporting activity.

Risk rating

How 1610 S Sawyer Ave'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
