Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2049 W Garfield Blvd in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood is a century-old structure built in 1908, currently owned by Miriam Olivares. Over the past seven years, there have been minimal recorded service requests associated with the property, totaling just two incidents. The most recent service request, filed on January 22, 2026, concerned a tree trimming matter, though this type of request is no longer being accepted under current city guidelines. Prior to that, in April 2025, there was a complaint regarding a vacant or abandoned building situation that was addressed and closed by the Department of Buildings. Given the age of the building and its relatively limited service request history, there have been no documented patterns of recurring issues or safety concerns in the recent record, though the dates of the recorded requests suggest there may have been periods of increased attention to the property.

Risk rating

How 2049 W Garfield Blvd'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.
