Initial analysis

The property at 5138 S Luna Ave in Chicago's Garfield Ridge neighborhood is a single-parcel, 1946-built residence currently owned by Benedict and Sandra Dudek. The building's service request history over the past seven years shows a total of 16 recorded incidents, with the most recent being an open garbage cart maintenance issue reported in June 2026. A notable pattern has emerged regarding rodent-related issues, with two separate rodent baiting complaints filed in June and November 2025, both of which have been resolved. The property has also undergone water quality testing procedures, as evidenced by a water lead test kit request in September 2025, and has experienced some plumbing concerns indicated by a leak check request in December 2025, which was subsequently closed. The most recent non-resolved service request involves an abandoned vehicle complaint filed in April 2026. While the building has experienced several maintenance and pest control issues, it's worth noting that most service requests over this period have been addressed and closed, with only two open matters as of mid-2026.

Risk rating

How 5138 S Luna 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.
