Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 5915 S Rockwell St in Chicago Lawn, owned by Angelica L Garcia, has been standing since 1911 and is part of a five-parcel ownership portfolio. Over the past seven years, the property has generated a modest number of municipal service requests, with only two 311 service requests in the most recent period (2023-2024), including recent reports for graffiti removal and an alley pothole complaint, both of which have been closed. The property's environmental record shows some cause for concern, with three air pollution-related complaints filed since 2021, two of which were either referred to other departments or resulted in no violations being found, while a 2022 hazardous materials complaint was resolved promptly within one day. The building's overall violation history appears minimal, with only one building violation recorded in the past seven years, suggesting relatively good maintenance compliance. The frequency of service requests varies significantly across the portfolio, with 29 requests attributed to the owner in the same seven-year period, though these represent issues across multiple properties rather than just this building.

Risk rating

How 5915 S Rockwell 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile
40thpercentile
