Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2144 S Hoyne Ave 3 in Chicago's Lower West Side, owned by Antonio Ramos, is a 127-year-old structure with a documented history of service requests over the past seven years. The property has generated a total of 17 service requests, with the owner filing one additional request beyond the building's own complaints. The most recent incidents, all occurring in 2026, include multiple complaints about abandoned vehicles (two in April), a fly dumping complaint (March), a sidewalk café/outdoor dining complaint (May), and a street light outage (April), most of which have been resolved. At present, there is an open service request regarding a blue recycling cart from May 2026. While the volume of service requests suggests some level of ongoing maintenance and community issues in the immediate vicinity, the majority of complaints have been addressed, with the exceptions being the recycling cart issue and one of the street-related complaints. The building's age and service request history indicate it has been subject to regular urban residential challenges typical of its age and location.

Risk rating

How 2144 S Hoyne Ave 3'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.
