Unlock complete reportThe two-unit residential building at 5327 W Congress Parkway in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by US Bank Trust NA TTEE, was constructed in 1920 and has experienced several notable events in recent years. Over the past seven years, the building has incurred two building code violations, specifically related to complaint-driven inspections in September 2019, though both of these issues were resolved. The property has generated a considerable number of 311 service requests, with 89 recorded under the current ownership, including five within the past seven years. The most recent service request from June 2026 regarding an alley sewer inspection is currently open, while other recent concerns such as tree removal (closed August 2025), recycling cart maintenance (closed July 2025), and garbage cart maintenance (also closed July 2025) have been resolved. It's worth noting that the building is part of a larger parcel ownership group comprising 14 total parcels, and while only one building permit has been recorded for this specific building in the past seven years, the ownership group has obtained a total of 13 building permits across all parcels. The significant disparity between the number of building code violations (2) and 311 service requests (89) suggests that many of the issues requiring city services may be related to external facilities or common area maintenance rather than individual unit concerns.

How 5327 W Congress Pky'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.
Out of 7212 buildings in this neighborhood, 5337 are predicted to be safer.
