Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2016 W 22nd Place in Chicago's Lower West Side, owned by Zion Properties Management, has a concerning pattern of issues in 2025 that warrant attention. Most significantly, there are currently seven unresolved building code violations as of December 2025, all of which resulted from complaint-driven inspections. The property has also generated multiple service requests in recent months, including a rodent complaint, sanitation code violation, and building violation in July 2025, followed by a fly dumping complaint, garbage cart maintenance issue, and finance parking code enforcement review in June through January 2026. While there was one building permit issued in the past seven years, the frequency and nature of recent complaints suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges.

Risk rating

How 2016 W 22Nd Pl'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
73rdpercentile

Out of 3683 buildings in this neighborhood, 994 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
