Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 5154 S Wood St in the New City neighborhood, owned by Jaime Flores, has experienced several municipal service interactions over the past seven years, with the most recent cluster of activity occurring in 2026. Currently, there are open service requests from May 2026 for both blue recycling cart and garbage cart maintenance, though these appear to be routine sanitation matters. This property has also seen its share of neighborhood maintenance issues, including two graffiti removal requests (one in December 2024 and another in March 2026), an abandoned vehicle complaint (closed in May 2026), and a street-related concern regarding potholes (closed in March 2025). While the building itself is over 110 years old (constructed in 1910), there are no recorded complaints or violations directly related to the building's condition or habitability in the available database. The property's service request history seems to primarily reflect typical urban neighborhood concerns rather than any exceptional issues with the building itself.

Risk rating

How 5154 S Wood 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

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.
