Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2423 S Hamlin Ave in Little Village, owned by Jennifer Cecilia Vera, has been facing several concerning issues recently, particularly with the most recent cluster of building code violations. As of November 6, 2023, the property has seven unresolved complaint-driven inspections that warrant attention. The building's service history over the past seven years indicates persistent maintenance challenges, including three documented rodent-related incidents between 2025 and 2026, which suggests an ongoing pest control issue. Additionally, there have been two sewer cleaning inspection requests filed in late 2024, one of which coincided with a water-in-basement complaint on October 11, 2024, indicating potential plumbing or drainage problems. While there was a recycling pickup request in February 2026, the building's recent violation history and service requests suggest that maintenance and habitability concerns have been more prevalent than routine services.

Risk rating

How 2423 S Hamlin 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
3rdpercentile
