AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 8028 South Jeffery Avenue in the South Chicago neighborhood, owned by L & M Rogers, has been in operation since 1923. The building's documented service request history over the past seven years shows relatively minimal activity, with a total of six 311 service requests on record. Most notably, there are currently two open requests from June 2026 for water lead test kits, which represent the most significant ongoing concern from a resident safety perspective. The property's recent history includes a series of addressed environmental infrastructure matters, with two tree removal inspections conducted in September and October 2025 (one initiated through the Alderman's office and the other through Streets and Sanitation), and a fly dumping complaint in August 2025, all of which were successfully closed out. Prior to these, a stray animal complaint was filed and resolved in April 2026. While the building has experienced several service requests, most have been related to environmental and infrastructure issues rather than direct building safety concerns, with the exception of the recent water lead testing requests which warrant monitoring given their potential health implications.

Risk rating

How 8028 S Jeffery Ave 1'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.
