Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 8805 S Muskegon Ave in the South Chicago neighborhood, owned by Rigoberto Torres, has been standing since 1929 and has experienced several noteworthy maintenance and service issues over the past seven years. The most recent documented concern is an open sign repair request from April 2026, though it remains to be seen how this will impact overall safety and accessibility. Of particular concern was a rodent-related issue reported in October 2025, which has since been closed but may indicate ongoing pest management needs. The building has also faced various infrastructure and maintenance challenges, including a building violation recorded in March 2025 and a pothole complaint in the alleyway from March 2024, both of which have been resolved. It's notable that the building has generated a relatively low number of service requests (five) over the past seven years, with no requests showing patterns of recurring issues, though the timing of these complaints suggests some seasonal concerns, particularly with the rodent complaint occurring in the fall.

Risk rating

How 8805 S Muskegon 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.
