Norwood Park, Chicago IL 60646 13053320010000 8 units · 1927

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 6057 W Seminole in Chicago's Norwood Park neighborhood, owned by J & S Building Management, was constructed in 1927 and has had relatively few reported service requests over the past seven years. The property's recent service history from 2024-2026 predominantly revolves around municipal services related to street maintenance and greenery, with the most recent request being a tree planting inquiry from June 2026. Prior to this, there were two tree trimming requests in March 2026, an alley light outage complaint in June 2025, a street cleaning request in September 2024, and a water on street complaint in July 2024. All these requests, with the exception of the current tree planting request, have been resolved, suggesting that while the property does require periodic maintenance and attention to its surrounding infrastructure, there are no recurring issues directly related to the building's condition or safety. The relatively low number of service requests over this extended period, particularly for a building of its age and size, may indicate either diligent property management or potential underreporting of issues.

Risk rating

How 6057 W Seminole 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
