Unlock complete reportThe three-unit residential building at 5805 N Cicero Ave, located at the border of the Sauganash and Forest Glen neighborhoods, was constructed in 1966 and is currently owned by the George Benchak Trustee. The property has generated a total of ten service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years, with the most recent incidents occurring in May 2026, involving a tree debris clean-up and a pothole complaint, both of which remain open as of October 2023. The historical service request data shows an interesting pattern of maintenance and environmental issues, including a rodent baiting complaint in May 2025 (now resolved), a yard waste pick-up request in June 2025 (resolved), and a tree emergency incident in March 2025 (also resolved). The building's maintenance record includes one information-only call to 311 in December 2025. While the variety of service requests suggests some ongoing environmental and maintenance challenges in the vicinity of the property, it's worth noting that the most recent complaints are related to municipal infrastructure issues rather than building-specific problems, and the property has been responsive to resolving most service requests when they occur.

How 5805 N Cicero Ave 1St'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.
Out of 283 buildings in this neighborhood, 207 are predicted to be safer.
