Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 8032 S Sangamon St, owned by Ethel Edwards, is a 109-year-old property located in Chicago's Auburn Gresham neighborhood. The building's documented history over the past seven years shows minimal service requests, with only three recorded 311 service calls, all occurring between June and September 2024. Two of these incidents were related to water issues, specifically street-related water complaints in June and August of 2024, while the most recent request in September 2025 concerned garbage cart maintenance. All reported service requests have been closed, though it's notable that multiple water-related issues were reported within a relatively short timeframe during 2024. The building appears to have had no reported service requests during the current year (2023) or in the previous seven-year period prior to 2024, suggesting either improved conditions or reduced need for city services in recent months.

Risk rating

How 8032 S Sangamon St'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.
