Initial analysis

The two-unit residential property at 6000 S Kolmar Ave in West Lawn, owned by Caroline Medina, was constructed in 1972 and has been subject to several municipal service requests in recent years. The building's documented complaints and service requests from the past seven years show relatively limited issues directly related to the building's condition or resident experience, with only five requests registered against the building itself. The most notable recent concern is an open sign repair request from September 2025, while other requests have primarily dealt with external matters such as graffiti removal and abandoned vehicle complaints, which were all properly addressed through the city's 311 system. The property has a total of 27 service requests listed under the owner's name across two parcels, though these primarily relate to external street and neighborhood issues rather than specific building concerns. It's worth noting that the most recent service requests from early 2026 relate to graffiti removal and an abandoned vehicle complaint, both of which were promptly resolved.

Risk rating

How 6000 S Kolmar Ave 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
95thpercentile

Out of 699 buildings in this neighborhood, 35 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
