Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 10046 S Avenue M in Chicago's East Side neighborhood, owned by Abel Morales Morales, was constructed in 1868 and has had minimal official activity in recent years. The property has maintained a relatively low profile, with only eight documented 311 service requests and a single building permit filed over the past seven years. The building's maintenance records from 2025 show a series of municipal service requests primarily related to general infrastructure and public space concerns, including garbage cart maintenance, an abandoned vehicle complaint, a tree emergency, blue recycling cart issues, a pothole in the street, and a parking code enforcement review. All these service requests have been resolved, though notably, they primarily concern public infrastructure rather than building-specific issues, and no major building violations or safety concerns are on record. The single building permit mentioned in the database has not been specified in terms of scope or impact on the property, though its presence suggests at least some level of recent maintenance or improvements.

Risk rating

How 10046 S Avenue M'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
58thpercentile
