Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 5750 South Paulina Street in Englewood, built in 1916 and owned by Earl Rogers, has experienced a concerning pattern of unresolved issues, particularly in early 2023 when six complaint-driven inspections resulted in open violations that remain outstanding. The property has recorded a total of 11 building code violations over the past seven years, indicating ongoing regulatory compliance challenges. More recently, in 2026, there have been multiple municipal service requests concerning the property, including three tree removal inspections (two of which remain open) and two garbage cart maintenance requests (one closed and one open). Additionally, there is an open request from December 2025 for public way inspection through the Alderman's office. While the age of the building and its two-unit configuration are typical for the Englewood neighborhood, the concentration of unresolved violations and open service requests suggests there are persistent maintenance and compliance issues that have yet to be addressed by the property owner.

Risk rating

How 5750 S Paulina 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

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
