Unlock complete reportThe property at 2445 W 45th Street in Chicago's Brighton Park neighborhood is a two-unit building constructed in 1929 and currently owned by Ruben Garcia. The building's recent service request history shows a recurring pattern of concerns related to street lighting and e-scooter parking, with the most recent street light complaint being filed in June 2026 and another in May 2026. Between November and December 2024, there were three consecutive complaints regarding e-scooter parking issues, though all these concerns have since been resolved. The property has maintained a relatively low number of service requests directly associated with the building itself, with only one maintenance request (regarding a garbage cart) recorded in May 2024, which was handled through the Alderman's office and subsequently closed. While the building's overall service request history is minimal, the repeated occurrences of street lighting issues in 2026 and e-scooter parking complaints in late 2024 may suggest these are ongoing community infrastructure challenges in the neighborhood.

How 2445 W 45Th 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.
Out of 3956 buildings in this neighborhood, 2334 are predicted to be safer.
