Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5027 S Maplewood Ave in Chicago's Gage Park neighborhood, owned by J & M Ramirez, has a relatively uneventful recent history compared to many urban properties. Originally constructed in 1903, the building's documented service request activity over the past seven years shows minimal concerns, with only one 311 service request recorded directly for the building: an abandoned vehicle complaint in May 2025 that has since been closed. The property owner, J & M Ramirez, has a total of three service requests on record, though it's worth noting that the single 311 complaint on file appears to pertain to an external issue (abandoned vehicle) rather than a building-specific concern. It's important to mention that due to the structure's age and relatively limited documented service history, potential residents should conduct thorough due diligence and consider any service requests that may have occurred outside the documented period.

Risk rating

How 5027 S Maplewood 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1776 buildings in this neighborhood, 586 are predicted to be safer.
