Initial analysis

The 7102 S Crandon building in the South Shore neighborhood is a 2-story apartment building constructed in 1917, currently owned by 71ST STREET APARTMENTS. The building's documented history over the past seven years shows minimal code violation activity, with two resolved violations recorded in February 2020 through complaint-driven inspections. The property has generated nine 311 service requests during this period, with the most recent requests occurring in 2026 and including diverse issues such as abandoned vehicle complaints, restaurant complaints, and stray animal incidents. The only documented building permit in this timeframe suggests limited major structural work or improvements. Of particular note, there was one water lead test visit request in February 2025, which could indicate concerns about water quality, though the resolution status is not specified in the records provided. While the building's violation and service request history doesn't show any pattern of persistent issues, the age of the building and limited recent maintenance records may warrant attention to ongoing building conditions.

Risk rating

How 7102 S Crandon'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
18thpercentile

Out of 2804 buildings in this neighborhood, 2299 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
