Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2615 W 40th Place in the Brighton Park neighborhood, owned by Margarito Escobar, was constructed in 1918 and has maintained a relatively low incidence of service requests over the past seven years, with only five recorded 311 calls. The most recent service interactions, all of which have been properly resolved, include three waste management-related requests (two in 2026 for yard waste pick-up and recycling cart issues, and one in 2025 for an alley light outage) as well as two property maintenance concerns (a graffiti removal request in August 2025 and an abandoned vehicle complaint in January 2025). The building's service request history suggests regular municipal service usage for common urban issues, with no recorded incidents that would significantly impact resident safety or comfort. The relatively low number of service requests over this extended period may indicate either a well-maintained property or a lack of comprehensive service record-keeping.

Risk rating

How 2615 W 40Th 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

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.
