6749 S Cornell Ave

South Shore, Chicago IL 60649 20243010100000 6 units · 1916

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. 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 six-unit residential building at 6749 S Cornell Ave in the South Shore neighborhood, owned by Betty J Hudson, has a documented history going back to its 1916 construction date. Over the past seven years, there have been three recorded 311 service requests associated with the property. The most recent incident occurred in April 2026, followed by another tree-related emergency in October 2025, and the earliest documented service request was for garbage cart maintenance in October 2024. All three service requests have been officially closed, though the repeated nature of tree emergency reports in 2025 and 2026 might warrant attention. While the number of service requests is relatively low for a multiple-unit building, it's worth noting that the two most recent incidents were both tree-related matters, with no reported safety or maintenance issues regarding the building structure or units themselves during this period.

Risk rating

How 6749 S Cornell 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.

Neighborhood percentile
31stpercentile
