AI summary

The six-unit residential building at 5329 S Indiana Ave in Washington Park, owned by Jeanette Gleese and constructed in 1903, has generated a total of eight service requests over the past seven years, with the majority occurring between 2024 and 2025. The most significant recent activity consists of three reported street light outages in June 2024 and July 2025, highlighting a recurring infrastructure issue in the immediate vicinity, though these are external to the building itself. The property has experienced some internal maintenance inquiries, including a leak check request in March 2025, which represents the only building-specific service request on record during this period. Additionally, there was one information-only call to 311 in March 2025, the purpose of which remains unspecified in the records. While the total number of service requests is relatively low for a multi-unit residential building of this age and size, the limited data available suggests that the primary issues affecting the property and surrounding area have been relatively minor and primarily related to external lighting infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 5329 S Indiana 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.
