Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 10121 S Ewing Ave in Chicago's East Side neighborhood, owned by David C Chavez, was constructed in 1958 and has had minimal documented issues in recent years. The property has an excellent record with only two service requests filed through the 311 system in the past seven years, both of which were submitted on October 29, 2024, and pertained to waste management concerns - specifically, maintenance issues with the blue recycling cart and the garbage cart. Both requests were promptly addressed and marked as closed. The building's limited service request history, particularly over the past several years, suggests stable maintenance conditions, though it should be noted that the two most recent service requests occurred simultaneously and relate to waste management infrastructure rather than structural or safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 10121 S Ewing 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.

Neighborhood percentile
70thpercentile

Out of 948 buildings in this neighborhood, 284 are predicted to be safer.
