West Pullman, Chicago IL 60628 25281030020000 4 units · 1916

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 621 W 119th Street in Chicago's West Pullman neighborhood, owned by Bruce Hardy and constructed in 1916, has had minimal documented issues over the past seven years, with only four 311 service requests on record. All recorded incidents are relatively recent, occurring between July and September 2025, suggesting either an unusual cluster of issues or perhaps more attention being paid to local reporting channels. The most recent service requests include a sewer cleaning inspection, a water-on-street complaint, a pothole complaint, and a request for dead animal removal, all of which were appropriately closed out by the respective city departments.

Risk rating

How 621 W 119Th 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.

Neighborhood percentile
