City In Review: Chicago

Humboldt Park · 2026-05

Humboldt Park May data missing—only licenses recorded

May's numbers for Humboldt Park are incomplete: the city logged zero permits, zero 311 requests, and zero crimes, a pattern that points to a reporting gap rather than reality. (April had 11 permits worth $1M, 611 service requests, 30 crimes.) The only activity that made it into the system: seven new business licenses, including Ponce Place (retail food), Star Beauty Supply 5, Ultimate Auto Hauz, Everclean Laundromat, DWF Food and Paper Redistributors, New Best Sub, and 48forty Solutions. Until the data's corrected, May's a blank month on paper.
