Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1815 S Ruble St in Chicago's Lower West Side is a historic property built in 1878, currently owned by Arnold Sandoval. The building has a relatively minimal record of 311 service requests over the past seven years, with only three documented incidents. Most recently, in May 2026, an alley pothole complaint was filed and remains open as of this report. Prior to that, there were two resolved issues: a graffiti removal request from August 2025, and a rodent baiting/rat complaint from May 2025, both of which were successfully addressed. The limited number of complaints over this period is noteworthy, though of particular concern is the persistent nature of the most recent pothole issue, which remains unresolved nearly one year after being reported.

Risk rating

How 1815 S Ruble 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.
