Initial analysis

The property at 5213 S Maplewood Ave in Gage Park, owned by Herminia Corona, is a century-old (1914) residential building that has experienced several notable issues in recent years. Most recently, in early 2025, the building faced significant water-related problems, with two consecutive "No Water" complaints logged through the city's 311 service system in January. Following these water issues, a sewer-related concern was documented in April 2024, with an open inspection request through the Department of Water Management that remains unresolved as of the latest data update. Additionally, in mid-2025, an environmental complaint regarding hazardous materials was filed, though this was investigated and determined to be unfounded within three days of the report. While the building's service request and complaint history over the past seven years is relatively limited, with only three 311 service requests and one environmental complaint on record, the nature of these recent issues—particularly the water-related problems—suggests there may be infrastructure challenges that require monitoring.

Risk rating

How 5213 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

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.
