Initial analysis

The property at 3018 West Avenue in the West University neighborhood is a historic single-unit residence, built in 1897 and currently owned by Steven Curtis and Lindsey Crow. The building, classified as an Additional Living Quarter, has had minimal construction activity in recent years, with only one building permit recorded in the past seven years. The property has experienced several municipal service interactions between 2024 and 2025, though none of these directly relate to the building's internal conditions or safety systems. The majority of the service requests (five out of six) have involved traffic-related issues requiring attention from the Transportation and Public Works department, including three instances of sign maintenance (both parking and traffic signs) and a view obstruction and fencing concern at an intersection. The property's external environment has seen two animal-related incidents in 2024, including a sick/injured animal report and a dead animal collection request. Given the age of the structure and its long history, it's noteworthy that there have been no recorded complaints or service requests related to the building's internal systems, such as plumbing, electrical, or HVAC, during this period.

Risk rating

How 3018 West 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

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