Initial analysis

The 11-unit residential building at 8022 S Yates in the South Chicago neighborhood, owned by Arthur L Brown, has been in operation since 1960 and has experienced multiple regulatory challenges in recent years. Over the past seven years, the building has accumulated a total of nine building code violations, with the most concerning cluster of these violations occurring between December 2020 and February 2021, all of which were complaint-driven inspections and notably, seven of these violations remain open and unresolved as of October 2023. While the property has had three building permits issued in the same seven-year period, the persistent nature of the unresolved violations - particularly in recent years - suggests ongoing compliance challenges within the building. Notably, there were two resolved violations from August 2020, which represents the only instance of compliance noted in the recent history of this building.

Risk rating

How 8022 S Yates 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.
