AI summary

The two-unit building at 5010 S Seeley Ave in Chicago's New City neighborhood is a two-story structure built in 1908, currently owned by Maria Ruiz. The building's recent 311 service history over the past seven years shows minimal activity, with only two recorded service requests in 2026. The most significant of these is an open tree emergency reported in June 2026, which could potentially affect the property or surrounding area, though the specific nature and severity of the issue is not detailed in the record. The other recorded interaction was a closed 311 information-only call from April 2026, which does not indicate any active concern or problem with the property. Given the limited number of service requests on file, many dating back more than seven years, it's important to note that this service record may not fully represent the building's current condition or any recent issues that may not have been documented through the 311 system.

Risk rating

How 5010 S Seeley 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
93rdpercentile

Out of 4189 buildings in this neighborhood, 293 are predicted to be safer.
