Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1017 W Cullerton St in Chicago's Lower West Side, owned by Miguel Olmos, has a documented history dating back to its 1879 construction. The property has experienced some maintenance and compliance challenges over the past several years, most notably in 2020 when multiple permit-related inspection violations were recorded, with one remaining unresolved as of the latest data update. While six of these violations were eventually resolved, the presence of an open violation from 2020 suggests ongoing compliance monitoring may be necessary. The building has also been the subject of three 311 service requests in recent years, with the most recent being a rodent baiting complaint in December 2025. The property has experienced recurring rodent issues, with another complaint recorded in November 2024, along with a garbage cart maintenance request during the same period. While the building's age and permit history indicate some regulatory oversight, it's important to note that seven building violations have been recorded over the past seven years, though it's unclear whether these are all directly related to the 2020 inspection period or represent separate issues.

Risk rating

How 1017 W Cullerton 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.

Neighborhood percentile
