Andersonville, Chicago IL 60640 14081180150000 3 units · 1908

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 5315 N Glenwood Ave in Chicago's Andersonville neighborhood is a 1908 construction currently owned by Maria Ferry. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a total of four documented interactions with the 311 City Services system. The most recent activity, as of October 2023, is an open request from April 2024 for a water lead test kit, which merits attention given its potential implications for resident safety and water quality. In April 2026, there were two separate reports of injured animals in the vicinity, both of which were promptly closed, though their relevance to the building's condition or management is minimal. Prior to these incidents, there was a tree trimming request in March 2025, though it's worth noting that this type of request is no longer being accepted by the city. While the relatively low number of service requests over this period might suggest minimal building issues, the presence of the open water lead test kit request and the cessation of tree trimming requests are noteworthy points in the building's recent service history.

Risk rating

How 5315 N Glenwood 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

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.
