Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5836 N Mulligan Ave in Chicago's Norwood Park neighborhood, owned by Norwood Properties LLC, was constructed in 1955 and has maintained a relatively low frequency of municipal service requests over the past seven years, with only four recorded incidents. The most recent series of service requests from 2024-2025 has primarily involved routine maintenance and municipal services, including three cart-related requests (for garbage and recycling carts) and one tree debris clean-up request. Notably, there was one water-related service request for a lead test kit in August 2024, which, while addressed through closure of the request, may merit attention due to the potential health implications associated with lead in potable water systems. The building's service request history shows prompt attention to municipal service needs, with all recorded requests being marked as closed.

Risk rating

How 5836 N Mulligan 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.
