Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1922 S Jefferson St 1 in Chicago's Lower West Side neighborhood, constructed in 1894 and currently owned by Jay Lin, has a relatively limited record of incidents over the past seven years. The property has generated a total of seven building violations during this period, though the specific nature and resolution of these violations are not detailed in the available records. Recent activity includes three service requests in the last two years: a garbage cart maintenance issue in May 2025, and an informational call to 311 in August 2024. Of particular note is a valid air pollution complaint filed in May 2026, which was resolved within a day of its reporting. Given the age of the building and its two-unit configuration, the limited number of service requests and complaints could be seen as relatively typical, though the recent environmental complaint warrants attention as the only documented pollution-related incident on record.

Risk rating

How 1922 S Jefferson St 1'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
