Risk rating

How 1132 Northwestern Ave'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.
