Initial analysis

The 9-unit residential building at 6135 South Kimbark Avenue in Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood is a newly constructed property, completed in 2023 and currently owned by Martha Boyd. The building's inspection and service record over the past seven years shows minimal issues, with only one building code violation recorded in August 2023 related to permit inspections, though this was promptly resolved. The property has had two 311 service requests filed under its name during this period. The first was a rodent baiting complaint in June 2024, and this matter was duly addressed and closed. More recently, in June 2026, there was a request for tree debris cleanup which also reached a closed status. Both service requests were handled through appropriate channels, suggesting responsive management to maintenance and safety concerns as they arose. The building's overall record shows proper resolution of reported issues, with no repeat violations or unresolved complaints on file.

Risk rating

How 6135 S Kimbark Chicago'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
20thpercentile
