Initial analysis

The three-story residential building at 142 W 112th Street in Roseland, built in 1903 and currently owned by Edward L Hopkins, presents a concerning pattern of open violations and service requests over recent years. Most notably, on October 8, 2019, six complaint-driven inspection violations were recorded that remain unresolved to this day. While there have been various service requests to the property between 2024 and 2026, including issues with low water pressure and sanitation code violations, these have all been successfully closed. The building's recent history includes a vacant/abandoned building complaint in June 2024 and a weed removal request in August 2024, both of which were resolved. Additionally, there was a street light outage complaint in May 2026. The combination of six open violations from 2019, representing the only recorded building code violations in the past seven years, stands out as the most significant and persistent issue on record for this property.

Risk rating

How 142 W 112Th St'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.
