Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 7235 S Evans Ave 1 in the Grand Crossing neighborhood, owned by Kimberly Alirule, has a significant history of sanitation-related issues over the past several years. The 125-year-old structure, built in 1898, has experienced multiple sanitation code violations, with the most recent two occurring in June 2026, one of which remains open. Between 2024 and 2026, there were five documented sanitation code violations, with four being resolved through city services. Additionally, the property has faced challenges with exterior maintenance, as evidenced by a weed removal request in May 2025 and a building violation in August 2024, both of which were successfully closed. The property also had one environmental complaint in 2026 related to illegal dumping, which was resolved the same year in May. While the building's violation history shows attention to these issues through resolution, the frequency of sanitation-related complaints suggests ongoing challenges with property maintenance and sanitation standards.

Risk rating

How 7235 S Evans Ave 1'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.
