Initial analysis

The property at 6415 S Sangamon Street in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood is a 125-year-old building currently owned by North American Homes. Significant concerns about the building's condition emerged in September 2011 when multiple violations were recorded relating to its vacant status. The building was cited for failing to meet the requirements of securing and maintaining a vacant property, specifically under violations 13-12-125, as well as for not having an required watchman under violations 13-12-140. These violations resulted in two separate proceedings: one where the building was found liable with fines totaling $2,800, and another case that resulted in a city non-suit with the same penalty amount. Given that these violations occurred over a decade ago and the building's age, it would be prudent to consider the potential impacts of this property’s long-vacant status on resident experience and safety, though no more recent violations are currently on record in the provided data.

Risk rating

How 6415 S Sangamon St'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.
