Over the past seven years, there have been 16 service requests filed through the 311 system, with the most recent cluster of incidents appearing in early 2025, when three separate tree emergency situations were reported on May 17th. The building has also experienced some seasonal weather challenges, with a notable ice and snow removal request logged in March 2026, following an abandoned vehicle complaint in April of the same year. Earlier in the timeline, there was an e-scooter parking complaint in January 2026. The property's permit activity has been minimal, with only two building permits issued over the past seven years.

Risk rating

How 5702 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.
