Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 5210 W Ainslie St in Chicago's Jefferson Park neighborhood, currently owned by 711 Group LLC, was constructed in 1975 and has maintained a relatively clean record over the past seven years. The property has experienced minimal regulatory issues during this period, with only one building code violation recorded, which emerged from a complaint-driven inspection in March 2024 and remains open as of October 2023. The building's service request history shows 13 documented interactions with city services, primarily clustered around garbage cart maintenance in May 2026, with four separate requests regarding this issue within a two-week period. Other service requests include a tree debris clean-up request in July 2025 and a pothole complaint in February 2025, both of which have been resolved. While the frequency of garbage cart maintenance requests in 2026 is notable, the overall record suggests that the building has experienced relatively few significant issues requiring municipal intervention, with no recorded pattern of violations that would significantly impact resident safety or experience.

Risk rating

How 5210 W Ainslie St'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.
