AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 5349 N Sawyer Ave, located in Chicago's North Park neighborhood, is a 117-year-old property currently owned by Ana Maria Mijangos. The building's service request history over the past seven years is relatively limited, with a total of six documented incidents. Most of these requests (four out of six) have been related to tree management issues, including a tree emergency and inspection request in 2024, indicating some historical concern about the property's greenery. Other service requests include a blue recycling cart issue in October 2024, an abandoned vehicle complaint in February 2025, and a yard waste pick-up request in May 2026. While the volume of service requests is not particularly high for a building of this age, it's worth noting that the most recent service request was for yard waste management, which appears to be a routine maintenance matter rather than a pressing safety concern.

Risk rating

How 5349 N Sawyer 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.
