Initial analysis

The 26-unit apartment complex at 506 W 37th Street, located in Austin's North University neighborhood, has been under the ownership of Miller J & E Family Limited Partnership since its construction in 1978. The building's recent maintenance history shows some attention to upkeep, including a re-roofing project permitted in September 2022, though this permit has since expired. Over the past seven years, the property has experienced two property abatement code complaints, one of which was opened in October 2023 and is now closed, along with an additional property abatement case from June 2026, which is also closed. The building has generated a total of 18 service requests to 311 over this period, with the most recent cluster of activity in 2026, including requests for code enforcement, parking violation enforcement, and various public works matters such as alley maintenance and micromobility services. While there have been no recorded code violations in the most recent seven-year period, the pattern of property abatement complaints and service requests warrants attention to the building's ongoing maintenance and operational challenges, particularly in recent years.

Risk rating

How 506 W 37 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile
4thpercentile

Out of 262 buildings in this neighborhood, 252 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
