Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2342 S Central Park Ave, located in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood, has been under the ownership of Faustino Herrera since its construction in 1881. The property, which is relatively old by modern standards, has experienced several concerning issues over the past seven years, with a particular cluster of problems emerging in 2025. Most notably, there has been an ongoing rodent infestation problem, with four separate rodent baiting/rat complaints filed between May and June of 2025, and three additional similar complaints recorded in 2026 and July 2024, indicating this has been a persistent issue. Other maintenance concerns include an open fire hydrant complaint in May 2025 and a missed garbage pick-up complaint in July 2024. While all service requests have been marked as closed, the frequency and nature of the rodent-related issues suggest a pattern of pest control challenges at this property over recent years.

Risk rating

How 2342 S Central Park Ave 1'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
