Clearing, Chicago IL 60638 19174150310000 8 units · 1963

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 8-unit residential building at 6052 S Central Chicago in the Clearing neighborhood, owned by Jozef Szewczyk, has maintained relatively low service request activity over the past seven years, with only four requests linked to the property, including one from the owner directly. The most pressing recent concerns involve rodent issues, with two rat complaints recorded in late 2024 and early 2026, both of which have been resolved according to city records. The building also experienced one public way inspection request in July 2024, initiated through the Alderman's office, which has been marked as closed. Built in 1963, the property has shown no major incidents or recurring issues beyond these typical urban challenges, and the limited number of service requests suggests relatively stable management of the building's basic infrastructure and environment.

Risk rating

How 6052 S Central Chicago'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
15thpercentile

Out of 624 buildings in this neighborhood, 530 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
