Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6437 S Marshfield Ave in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood, owned by Nikela Radcliff, has been standing since 1903. The property has experienced minimal documented activity over the past seven years, with only two building permits filed and seven service requests through the 311 system. The most recent and notable pattern of service requests relates to garbage cart maintenance, with four such requests recorded in July 2025 alone, followed by additional requests in September and October 2025. Prior to these, there was one report of a dead animal requiring pickup in September 2024. The frequency of garbage-related service requests in 2025 stands out as the primary cluster of maintenance issues on record, though all documented incidents have been resolved according to the available data. While historical permit data isn't detailed in this record, the limited number of service requests and permits suggests a relatively stable building maintenance history over the past seven years, with no recorded incidents that would raise significant safety or resident experience concerns.

Risk rating

How 6437 S Marshfield 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

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.
