Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The 4-unit residential building at 6250 S Archer Avenue in Garfield Ridge, built in 1965 and owned by Archer Partnership, has experienced a notable increase in service requests over the past year. Starting from March 2026, there have been multiple service requests related to tree emergencies (two recorded in June 2026), while other recent issues included rodent concerns in May 2026, graffiti in April 2026, and a tree trimming request in January 2026. A public way inspection request remains open as of March 2026, suggesting ongoing concerns in that area. The building's historical record shows one environmental complaint related to air pollution from February 2000, though this appears to be an isolated incident from over two decades ago. The property's recent service request pattern, particularly regarding tree-related issues and pest control, indicates some environmental management challenges in the vicinity, while the open inspection request suggests potential ongoing infrastructure or safety concerns in the surrounding area.

Risk rating

How 6250 S Archer Ave'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
19thpercentile
