Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 7405 S Princeton Ave in Chicago's Grand Crossing neighborhood was built in 1886 and is currently owned by Ramon H Jones. The property has had a minimal but notable record of issues over the past seven years, with two building code violations and four 311 service requests on file. Most concerning are two unresolved building code violations from August 2024, which indicate ongoing compliance issues that may affect resident safety and comfort. The building's service request history includes three closed service requests in 2024-2025, specifically related to garbage and recycling cart maintenance in February 2025, a building violation request in July 2024, and a tree debris cleanup request in July 2024. The property's building permit history over this period shows three permits were issued, though the specific nature and timing of these permits is not detailed in the available records. While the number of service requests and violations is relatively low, the open building code violations from August 2024 warrant particular attention as they represent unresolved safety or compliance issues.

Risk rating

How 7405 S Princeton 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
