Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 10214 S Forest Ave in Roseland, built in 1925 and currently owned by Jeanine Lynee Jones, has experienced several noteworthy incidents in recent years. The most significant current issues are two unresolved permit-related violations recorded in September 2025, which merit attention given their open status. The building's maintenance history shows some attention to safety and environmental concerns, with two tree-related service requests (emergency and removal inspections) being addressed in 2024-2025, though all were properly closed. The property has had multiple 311 service requests in recent years, including an open complaint about an abandoned vehicle (filed June 2026) and a closed fly dumping complaint (October 2025). Other resolved issues include a blue recycling cart request (March 2025) and several tree-related matters, suggesting ongoing efforts to manage the property's outdoor environment despite some challenges.

Risk rating

How 10214 S Forest 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
