Initial analysis

The building at 1616 W 80th Street in the Auburn Gresham neighborhood is a 9-unit property owned by Pangea Ventures, constructed in 1925. Over the past seven years, the building has experienced two building code violations, while the owner has faced a total of 27 building violations and 51 service requests across three parcels. The most concerning recent activity includes two open building code violations recorded in May 2026, suggesting ongoing compliance issues. The property has been the subject of multiple service requests in 2026, with several related to street light pole damage in June (three complaints submitted, with one resolved through the Alderman's office) and a rodent baiting/rat complaint that remains open. Additionally, there are current concerns regarding a tree emergency reported in June 2026, as well as a building violation complaint from April 2026 that was subsequently closed. The clustering of issues in 2026, particularly the open building violations and multiple service requests, indicates a period of heightened maintenance and safety concerns that should be closely monitored.

Risk rating

How 1616 W 80Th 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
