Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5843 N Rockwell Street in the West Ridge neighborhood, owned by David Yousif, was constructed in 1923 and has maintained a relatively low frequency of service requests over the past seven years, with only three documented incidents. All three service requests were made in 2024 and have been resolved, indicating prompt attention to maintenance issues. The most recent request, made in November 2024, was for tree trimming, though it's worth noting that such requests are no longer being accepted through the city's 311 system. Prior to that, in August and June 2024, there were complaints about street and alley lighting issues, both of which were subsequently closed. While the building has experienced some infrastructural concerns regarding public lighting in its vicinity, all reported issues have been addressed, and there are no recorded safety incidents or more serious service requests on file, which suggests stable building conditions over this period.

Risk rating

How 5843 N Rockwell 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

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.
