Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2632 N Lawndale Ave in Logan Square, constructed in 1903, presents a concerning record over the past seven years. The property, currently listed under the name "TAXPAYER OF," has accumulated an extraordinarily high number of building violations (2228), significantly outpacing both environmental enforcement actions (10) and complaints (33) during this period. Additionally, there have been 338 building permits issued, which warrants attention to the nature and frequency of these modifications. The building's service request history shows an astronomical total of 8731 requests, suggesting either serious ongoing maintenance issues or potentially excessive usage of city services by the property management. Notably, there appears to be minimal recent activity impacting resident safety or comfort, with the only documented service request in the system being a closed garbage cart maintenance issue from April 2026. This discrepancy between historical and recent activity could indicate a potential data reporting or systems update issue, as the current documented conditions appear unusually quiet compared to the building's historical activity levels.

Risk rating

How 2632 N Lawndale 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

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.
