Initial analysis

The 42-unit residential building at 5710 N Winthrop in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood, owned by TFG 5710 WINTHOP AN IL, has a significant number of ongoing issues that warrant attention. As of 2024, there are four open violations resulting from complaint-driven inspections in January 2024, along with two open violations from a May 2023 routine inspection and complaint-driven inspection. The property has experienced an unusually high number of service requests since 2026, with at least five related to construction violations and building permit issues in the first half of 2026, along with two tree planting requests. The building's permit history shows only one permit issued in the past seven years, which raises concerns about potential unauthorized modifications.

Risk rating

How 5710 N Winthrop Chicago'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.
