AI summary

The two-unit building at 5739 N Richmond Street in Chicago's West Ridge neighborhood is a 1928 structure currently owned by Jesus I Asmal. The building's recent maintenance history shows limited activity over the past seven years, with only three documented 311 service requests. The most recent of these, from July 2025, pertains to a water lead test kit request that remains open, potentially indicating ongoing concerns about water quality. Prior to this, there were two resolved issues: a garbage cart maintenance request from January 2025 and a street pothole complaint from April 2024. The property's environmental record includes one air pollution complaint from 2019, though this was investigated and found to have no violations. While the number of service requests is relatively low for a multi-unit building, the open water lead test kit request in particular warrants attention as it relates to resident health and safety.

Risk rating

How 5739 N Richmond St'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
