Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 11946 S State Street in Chicago's West Pullman neighborhood, owned by Keisha Walton, has been standing since 1928. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of seven 311 service requests, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in late 2025, including an open sign repair request from October 2025 and a tree trimming request from November 2025. Earlier in 2025, there were two reports of abandoned vehicles near the property, both of which have since been resolved. The building experienced recurring issues with tree debris in its vicinity, with clean-up requests submitted in both August 2025 and September 2024, though these have also been addressed and closed. The property's record shows minimal permitted work over the past seven years, with only one building permit filed, though the specific nature of this permit is not detailed in the available records. The relatively low number of complaints and service requests in recent years, with most being related to exterior maintenance rather than internal building issues, suggests a level of stability, though the pattern of tree-related incidents in 2024-2025 could indicate ongoing landscaping challenges in the property's surroundings.

Risk rating

How 11946 S State 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.
