Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6049 S Spaulding Ave in the Chicago Lawn neighborhood, owned by Francisco De La Cruz, has a recorded history dating back to its construction in 1925. The property has generated a total of 12 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years, with an increasing frequency of reports in recent years. Notably, there appears to be an emerging rodent issue in the vicinity, with two rat complaints filed in June and May 2026, representing the most recent and arguably most concerning issues on record. The building has also experienced some tree-related matters in 2025, including two trim requests in August of that year and a tree emergency in July, all of which have been resolved. An abandoned vehicle complaint was filed and closed in January 2025. While the service request history shows that issues are generally being addressed through the 311 system, the recent cluster of rodent complaints suggests this is an ongoing concern in the neighborhood as of mid-2026.

Risk rating

How 6049 S Spaulding 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.
