Initial analysis

This two-unit residential building located at 22 E 118th Place in Chicago's West Pullman neighborhood was constructed in 1898 and is currently owned by Louis Wallace. The property has three total parcels owned by Wallace and has experienced a moderate level of incident reports over the past seven years. Notably, there are three open building code violations as of April 2023 resulting from complaint-driven inspections, which warrant particular attention as they represent unresolved safety or maintenance issues. The building's 311 service request history indicates 15 total requests under Wallace's ownership, with the most recent being a tree emergency report from June 2026. The property has shown recurring issues with tree-related matters, as evidenced by multiple emergency and inspection requests between 2025-2026. Other service requests include a no-water complaint (closed) in February 2026, tree removal inspection (closed) in August 2025, and an abandoned vehicle complaint (closed) in January 2025. While some issues have been resolved, the presence of open building violations and multiple tree-related incidents suggests ongoing maintenance challenges at the property.

Risk rating

How 22 E 118Th Pl'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.

Neighborhood percentile
22ndpercentile
