Initial analysis

The 20-unit residential building at 6840 S Perry in Chicago's Grand Crossing neighborhood, owned by Margaret Jedrzjcak, has experienced a concerning number of recent issues. Most notably, there are currently six unresolved complaint-driven building code violations as of July 2025, with an additional violation recorded in April 2025, bringing the total building violation count in the past seven years to sixteen. The property has also generated thirteen 311 service requests during the same period, with the most recent being an alley light outage complaint in March 2026. The building's service request history includes multiple animal-related incidents in late 2025, including two stray animal complaints and one vicious animal complaint, suggesting potential concerns with the property's immediate surroundings or enforcement of pet policies. Additionally, there was a sanitation code violation reported in December 2025, though this was subsequently closed. Given the number of open violations and recent service requests, particularly those related to building safety, the property appears to be experiencing ongoing maintenance and regulatory compliance challenges.

Risk rating

How 6840 S Perry Chicago'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
2ndpercentile
