AI summary

The three-unit residential building at 8118 S Maryland Ave in Chicago's Chatham neighborhood is a 1924 construction currently owned by Anthony A Calloway Jr. Over the past seven years, the property has recorded minimal service activity, with only one 311 service request on file - a fly dumping complaint filed in April 2026, which has since been closed. Given the building's age and size, this remarkably low number of service requests might suggest either effective property management or underreporting of issues, though one isolated incident of fly dumping doesn't necessarily reflect on the building's overall condition or resident experience. The property's maintenance and service history shows no major concerns or patterns that would impact tenancy quality, based on the available data through October 2023.

Risk rating

How 8118 S Maryland 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1891 buildings in this neighborhood, 624 are predicted to be safer.
