Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5466 N Monitor Ave in Jefferson Park, constructed in 1922, has had a remarkably active record over the past seven years, with a total of 2,518 service requests logged under its current ownership by Chicago Title Land Trust. This high volume of service requests is particularly notable considering the relatively small size of the building. The property has experienced some concerning patterns, most significantly the record of 816 building violations during this period, which averages out to over three violations per week. Additionally, there have been 5 environmental enforcement actions and 13 environmental complaints filed against the property, suggesting possible ongoing environmental compliance issues. The building has also accumulated 134 permits, which may indicate regular maintenance or renovation work, though the nature of these permits is not specified in the data. Other noteworthy records include 7 scofflaw violations and 1 house share violation, though these represent a smaller proportion of the overall totals. The most recent service request on record is from December 2024 regarding a tree emergency, which has since been closed through the Alderman's office.

Risk rating

How 5466 N Monitor Ave First'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.
