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 property at 10550 S Wentworth Ave in Roseland is a two-unit residential building owned by Ethel L Ross, dating back to 1890. The building's recent service request history from 2025 to 2026 shows a pattern of maintenance and compliance issues, with a total of eight recorded 311 service requests over the past seven years. The most concerning of these were two incidents in 2025 involving a vacant/abandoned building complaint and a building violation, though both issues were subsequently closed. The property has also required attention to waste management, with two garbage cart maintenance requests filed and resolved in 2025 and another in early 2026. More recently, in May 2026, there were two complaints about abandoned vehicles in the vicinity of the property, though these are external issues not directly related to the building's condition or management. While all reported issues have been closed, the frequency of service requests related to building violations and garbage cart maintenance within a relatively short timeframe suggests there may have been some challenges with property upkeep and code compliance during that period.

Risk rating

How 10550 S Wentworth 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

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
