Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5042 W Winona St, located in the Sauganash/Forest Glen neighborhood, was constructed in 1924 and is currently owned by Raul & Angelica Corral. The property has experienced minimal building code violations over the past seven years, with only one recorded violation from June 2020 that remains open and unresolved, which may warrant attention given its extended duration. The building has generated a total of nine 311 service requests over the same period, with the most recent activity occurring in 2025. While most of these service requests have been promptly addressed and closed, they primarily pertained to tree-related issues (including emergency response, debris cleanup, and removal inspection) occurring in the summer of 2025, which suggests the property may have experienced some challenges with the local tree management situation. Additionally, there were requests related to an abandoned vehicle and a dead animal that were also resolved, though these were external to the building's direct condition or systems. Despite the number of service requests recorded this year, it's important to note that these were primarily environmental and site-related issues rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 5042 W Winona 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.
