Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 602 Allen Street in the Govalle neighborhood, owned by Rubew Castro and Brenda Mariana Castro, has experienced several noteworthy events over the past two years. The property, built in 1946, currently has an active structure condition violation case opened in March 2022, and has received multiple property abatement complaints in 2024 and 2026, with the most recent case being classified as Priority 5. The building's compliance history shows four code complaints in the last seven years, of which two resulted in violations, and there has been one building permit issued during this period. The property has generated 19 service requests through the city’s 311 system in the past seven years, with the most recent cluster of activity occurring in early 2026 including three separate outdoor commercial venue music complaints in March, and various other issues such as graffiti abatement, animal care concerns, and a bulk service request, all of which have been resolved. While the building's age and duplex status are typical for the neighborhood, the frequency of recent property abatement complaints and active structural violation case warrants attention to the building's maintenance and compliance history.

Risk rating

How 602 Allen St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Austin Code enforcement data — code violations, complaint history, Repeat Offender Program activity, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that Austin Code 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

Austin Code rarely finds 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. Austin Code has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
