Unlock complete reportThe property at 12030 S Normal Ave in the West Pullman neighborhood is a 130-year-old building owned by Curlettee H Underwood. The building's master record over the past seven years shows relatively minimal activity, with only one building permit filed and a total of 18 service requests through the 311 system. The most significant pattern of incidents relates to animal-related issues, with five separate reports regarding stray animals, injured animals, and pet wellness checks between November 2025 and May 2026. These animal-related service requests, while numerous, do not directly impact the building's structural integrity or safety systems. The property has also experienced some routine maintenance needs, including a garbage cart maintenance request in February 2026 and a lead inspection request in November 2025, though there are no records indicating significant lead-related concerns. Given the age of the building and its history, the relatively low number of service requests and permits over this period may indicate stable maintenance levels, though the concentration of animal-related incidents in recent months stands out as the most notable pattern in the building's service request history.

How 12030 S Normal Ave'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
Grade A–B — Low risk
City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.
Grade C — Moderate risk
Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.
Grade D–F — High risk
Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
Out of 1005 buildings in this neighborhood, 382 are predicted to be safer.
