Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 10143 S Avenue L in Chicago's East Side neighborhood, built in 1894 and currently owned by Luz Flores, has a relatively minimal service request history over the past seven years. The most notable trend in recent months has been an unusual cluster of pothole-related complaints, with three street pothole complaints registered between October 2024 and March 2025, along with an alley pothole complaint in May 2024, all of which have been closed. There was also one tree planting request submitted in October 2024 that remains open, and a closed complaint regarding an abandoned vehicle from July 2024. Looking further back in the building's history, there was a work order related to air pollution filed in March 2004, though no similar complaints have been recorded in recent years. The property has demonstrated proper reporting channels for various infrastructure issues in the surrounding area, with all recent service requests having been directed through appropriate municipal channels, though it's worth noting that the 2024 pothole complaints show some clustering in timing and location.

Risk rating

How 10143 S Avenue L Hse'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.
