Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5311 N Glenwood Ave in Chicago's Andersonville neighborhood is a century-old property constructed in 1907, currently owned by Michiyo Bennett. The building's recent history over the past seven years has been relatively uneventful, with only three documented 311 service requests, all related to tree maintenance issues. In March 2025, two tree trimming requests were made and subsequently closed, though it's worth noting that these requests were for a type of service no longer being accepted by the city. Additionally, there was an earlier tree emergency reported in October 2024 that was also resolved. Given the building's age and urban location, this limited number of service requests is notable, suggesting either good maintenance practices or potentially underreported issues, though the nature of the requests being primarily related to tree care rather than building-specific concerns is worth noting for potential residents.

Risk rating

How 5311 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

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.
