Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 9130 S Ada Street, owned by Mariah Seton and located in Chicago's Washington Heights neighborhood, has been in operation since 1953 and is currently facing several pressing issues. Most notably, there are multiple open violations recorded on February 9, 2024, related to complaint-driven inspections, which represent the most serious and recent concerns about the building's code compliance. While the property has a history of building violations, totaling 15 in the past seven years, and three 311 service requests during the same period, the most recent service requests pertain to municipal services rather than building conditions - including a closed request for dead animal pickup in August 2025, a closed weed removal request from July 2025, and an open tree planting request from April 2024. Among past violations, there was one resolved complaint-driven inspection from October 2021, though the resolution details are not specified in the records. The concentration of recent open violations and the nature of recent service requests suggest the building may currently be experiencing various maintenance and environmental challenges, though the specific nature of the open violations from February 2024 is not detailed in the available data.

Risk rating

How 9130 S Ada St 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

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.
