8301 S Peoria Chicago

Auburn Gresham, Chicago IL 60620 20324060010000 16 units · 1927

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The 16-unit residential building at 8301 S Peoria Street in Chicago's Auburn Gresham neighborhood, owned by HG JR Living Trust, has experienced several notable events over the past seven years, with the most recent being a series of tree-related incidents in June 2026. This pattern of tree-related issues is concerning, with multiple emergency requests still showing as open, indicating potential ongoing safety or maintenance concerns in the vicinity. Prior to these, there was one weed removal request in May 2026 that was resolved. While the building itself, constructed in 1927, has maintained a relatively stable service request history with only 26 total 311 service requests over the past seven years, the recent cluster of tree-related incidents suggests a temporary period of environmental maintenance challenges in the immediate area, though it's worth noting that all service requests to this point have been environmental rather than structural or safety-related within the building itself.

Risk rating

How 8301 S Peoria 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

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
8thpercentile
