Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5725 N Talman Ave in Chicago's West Ridge neighborhood is a 1923 structure currently owned by 311 Chicago Corp. The property's documented history over the past seven years shows minimal activity, with only three recorded 311 service requests and one building permit. The most recent service requests, all from 2024-2025, have been relatively routine municipal matters, including maintenance of garbage carts, cleanup of tree debris, and a request regarding the blue recycling cart, all of which have been successfully closed. These requests suggest regular interaction with municipal services, primarily related to waste management and landscaping, but no indications of urgent repairs or safety concerns. The single building permit issued in the past seven years is notable for its scarcity, though the specific nature of this permit is not detailed in the available data.

Risk rating

How 5725 N Talman 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

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.
