Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5125 W Deming Pl in Belmont Cragin, owned by Marcelo Cabrera, has maintained a relatively low volume of complaints and service requests over the past seven years since its construction in 1949. The most recent environmental incident, recorded in December 2023, involved an air pollution complaint that was promptly resolved on the same day it was filed. The property has experienced several service requests in recent years, with the majority focusing on external matters such as tree planting, with two requests in September 2025, one of which remains open as of the report date. There was also a cluster of abandoned vehicle complaints in late 2025, totaling three reports between November and December of that year, all of which have been closed. The building's 311 service request history shows attention to both environmental improvements (through the tree planting initiatives) and ongoing municipal service needs, though the relatively low number of complaints and service requests over this period suggests generally stable building management and maintenance practices.

Risk rating

How 5125 W Deming Pl'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.
