Garfield Ridge, Chicago IL 60638 19093120330000 4 units · 1926

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 property at 5760 South Archer Avenue in the Garfield Ridge neighborhood is a four-unit residential building constructed in 1926 and currently owned by John Witunski. Over the past seven years, the building has generated a total of 28 service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in June 2026, including three restaurant-related complaints and two graffiti removal requests. Prior to these incidents, there was one stray animal complaint in April 2026, which was also resolved. The building's historical records show a single environmental complaint from June 1993, concerning permits issued by the Department of Environment, though this was likely resolved given the time elapsed since the incident. While the recent cluster of complaints in June 2026 warrants attention, it's notable that these issues appear to be predominantly related to nearby commercial activity rather than the residential building itself.

Risk rating

How 5760 S Archer 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.
