Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 6337 S Drexel Avenue in Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood, owned by F ALAO Medina, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, there has been a concerning pattern of plumbing-related problems, with three documented plumbing violations in early 2026 (March and February), one in April 2024, and a no water complaint in June 2024, all of which have been resolved. The building has also generated one environmental complaint related to air pollution in September 2022, which was promptly resolved within a day, and a historical toxic/hazardous materials complaint from 2005. While the property has had a total of five 311 service requests in the past seven years, it's worth noting that only one of these complaints (the air pollution incident) directly relates to environmental concerns, as the plumbing violations and water issues appear to be the primary mechanical challenges affecting the building.

Risk rating

How 6337 S Drexel 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.

Neighborhood percentile
23rdpercentile
