Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2338 W Cullerton St in Chicago's Lower West Side, owned by Jesus Soto, has a long history dating back to 1885. The property is part of a larger ownership portfolio consisting of four parcels. Over the past seven years, there has been minimal activity recorded specifically for this address, with only one 311 service request noted on record - a blue recycling cart request made in October 2025. While the owner of the property has a total of 14 service requests across their four parcels during this seven-year period, it's worth noting that the majority of these requests (13 out of 14) were filed for different addresses. The limited number of service requests associated with both the specific address and the owner suggests either relatively few issues requiring city intervention or potentially under-reported concerns within the building. However, given the age of the building and typical maintenance needs, this minimal service request history is notable, particularly in comparison to more recent service demands often seen in similar residential buildings.

Risk rating

How 2338 W Cullerton 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
