Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5457 N Lynch Ave in Jefferson Park, owned by Conor M Glascott, is a1926 structure that has shown minimal interaction with city services over the past seven years. The property has only one recorded 311 service request in this period, which was for a tree trimming request made on February 14, 2025, though it's worth noting that the city no longer accepts this type of request. This request has since been closed. The building's record shows no significant safety concerns or other resident-impacting issues, with the limited service requests suggesting either proactive maintenance or perhaps underreporting of issues. The property's ownership and service request history remains consistent across all recorded parameters, with no additional parcels or service requests associated with the owner in the city's records.

Risk rating

How 5457 N Lynch 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

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.
