Initial analysis

The property at 1909 E 16th Street in the Chestnut neighborhood is a single-unit residential building that was constructed in 1920 and is currently owned by Larry and Krissa Harkrider. The building, which has been classified as an Additional Living Quarter improvement type, has generated an above-average number of 311 service requests in the past seven years, with a notable cluster of six service requests in the spring of 2026 alone. This recent activity in 2026 primarily consisted of three compost-related requests and two work zone activation/deactivation requests through Austin Resource Recovery and Austin Transportation and Public Works respectively. The only infrastructure-related request on record was for pothole repair in May 2026, though these repairs appear to have been completed successfully as all six recent requests have been marked as closed. While the frequency of these service requests is somewhat high, particularly during this concentrated period, the nature of the requests—mostly relating to waste management and work zone activities—appears to have limited direct impact on resident experience or safety within the building itself.

Risk rating

How 1909 E 16 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.

Neighborhood percentile
46thpercentile

Out of 74 buildings in this neighborhood, 40 are predicted to be safer.
