Initial analysis

The three-story residential building at 2332 W 21st Street in Chicago's Lower West Side, owned by Robert Cabral, is an 1888 structure with a relatively clean record over the past seven years. While there was one building code violation recorded in January 2022 related to a complaint-driven inspection, the status remains unresolved as of the last available data. The property has generated two 311 service requests in recent years, with the most recent being a Divvy bike parking complaint in December 2025, and a graffiti removal request from January 2025, both of which have been resolved. With only one building code violation on record, the property's overall maintenance history appears stable, though the outstanding violation from 2022 warrants attention.

Risk rating

How 2332 W 21St St'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.
