West Town, Chicago IL 60622 17072040020000 2 units · 1918

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The property at 1957 W Superior St in Chicago's West Town neighborhood is a two-unit building from 1918, currently owned by Domitila Ovalle Rodrig. Over the past seven years, the building has generated a total of 19 service requests through the city's 311 system, with the most recent request concerning garbage cart maintenance filed in May 2026, which remains open as of the latest data. The majority of recorded incidents relate to street-level environmental issues, including requests for street cleaning and various animal-related incidents, such as multiple reports of injured animals in August 2025, a dead animal pick-up request in October 2025, and a fly dumping complaint in July 2025. All these service requests, except for the currently open garbage cart maintenance issue, have been resolved, with most being closed promptly after reporting. The building's 311 service request history appears to be primarily focused on external environmental and maintenance issues rather than internal building-specific concerns or tenant-related complaints.

Risk rating

How 1957 W Superior St'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
