Fuller Park, Chicago IL 60609 20094080100000

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The property at 318 West 52nd Place is a single-parcel building located in the Fuller Park neighborhood of Chicago, dating back to 1883 and currently owned by Tonya Butler. Over the past seven years, the building has generated a total of 16 service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent activity concentrated in 2026. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety-related issues this year, with multiple weed removal requests (three of which remain open as of June 2026), and a fly dumping complaint that was resolved. Earlier in 2026, there was a closed tree trim request, though it is worth noting that the city has ceased accepting such requests, and a vacant/abandoned building complaint was filed and subsequently closed. The frequency of service requests for 2026, particularly related to property maintenance issues like weeds and the fly dumping incident, suggests ongoing challenges with exterior upkeep and potential neighborhood quality concerns, though all previous service requests have been addressed through the closure of of all 311 calls prior to 2026.

Risk rating

How 318 W 52Nd Pl'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
34thpercentile

Out of 272 buildings in this neighborhood, 180 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
