Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3021 South Drake Avenue in Little Village has an extensive history dating back to 1898, currently owned by Javier Briones. Over the past seven years, there have been ten documented 311 service requests associated with this property, with the most recent being an open complaint about a pothole in the street from May 2026. The property has experienced several infrastructure-related issues, including three tree trim requests submitted in January 2026 (though this service is no longer being accepted), an open fire hydrant complaint in June 2025, and a street light outage report in March 2025, all of which were successfully closed. The pattern of service requests suggests that while the building itself may not have required significant interventions, there have been various municipal service needs in the immediate vicinity, primarily related to public infrastructure and maintenance, rather than issues directly impacting the building's habitability or safety.

Risk rating

How 3021 S Drake 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.
