Chatham, Chicago IL 60620 20332020200000 14 units · 1933

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 14-unit, 1933-built apartment building at 7955 S Princeton in Chicago's Chatham neighborhood, currently owned by The Chicago Trust NA, has maintained a relatively low volume of service requests over the past seven years, with a total of six recorded incidents. The most recent activities on record, all from 2025, involve two tree emergencies that were promptly closed after their reporting. Prior to these, there was a notable cluster of animal-related incidents in 2024, with four consecutive reports of injured animals between May 13 and May 29, all of which were subsequently resolved. While the building's overall service request history is limited, the frequency and clustering of animal-related incidents in May 2024 stands out as the most significant pattern in the available data, though it appears to have been resolved without further recurrence.

Risk rating

How 7955 S Princeton 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
15thpercentile

Out of 1901 buildings in this neighborhood, 1616 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
