Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5013 W Monroe Street in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by Ms. Linette V Stewart, has been in operation since 1912 and has generated a total of 19 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years. The most recent activity, as of March 2026, includes a dead animal pickup request, while other notable requests in the past year have included ice and snow removal, rodent control measures, and a water lead testing visit, suggesting some ongoing maintenance and environmental concerns in the vicinity. Additional service requests have included a parking code enforcement review and a general information inquiry. While many of these issues appear to have been addressed promptly, the presence of multiple service requests related to environmental concerns, particularly the water lead test and rodent complaint, may warrant attention. The building's 311 service request history shows a pattern of diverse municipal service interactions, with the most recent clustering of requests occurring in late 2025, including infrastructure maintenance (ice and snow removal) and health-related concerns (water lead test).

Risk rating

How 5013 W Monroe St'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.
