Woodlawn, Chicago IL 60637 20154220220000 2 units · 1918

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 two-unit residential building at 6232 S Evans Ave in the Woodlawn neighborhood is a 1918 construction currently owned by Emily J Cooper. Over the past seven years, there have been three documented 311 service requests related to the property, with the most recent and most significant incidents occurring in October 2025. On October 15, 2025, there was a sanitation code violation that was subsequently closed, though the nature and implications of this violation are not detailed in the records. On the same date in October 2025, there were two additional service requests: one for an open inspection of the public way and another related to sidewalk inspection by the Department of Transportation, which remains open as of the latest available data. These recent requests suggest ongoing infrastructure and public safety considerations in the vicinity of the property, particularly regarding sanitation and pedestrian safety. While the building's service request history over the past seven years is relatively minimal, with only one request documented in 2025 prior to the October incidents, the concentration of recent requests warrants attention to current property conditions and surrounding infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 6232 S Evans 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.
