Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2833 S Kolin Ave in Little Village, owned by Cynthia Guerra, has been standing since 1898 and has a recorded history of minimal service requests over the past seven years. The property's service request record shows three documented incidents between 2024 and 2026. In May 2024, there was a request regarding garbage cart maintenance, followed by a sanitation code violation in September 2025. Most recently, in January 2026, a request was made concerning snow object/dibs removal, and notably, this was the only weather-related service request in the past seven years. All three service requests have been closed, though the records provide limited detail on whether any persistent issues remain. The relatively low number of service requests over this seven-year period could be interpreted as an indicator of stable maintenance, though it's worth noting that the building's age may present unique preservation considerations not reflected in the 311 service request data.

Risk rating

How 2833 S Kolin 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
