Initial analysis

The five-unit apartment building at 4204 Speedway in Hyde Park, constructed in 1970 and currently owned by Chris D Werner, has experienced several notable events in recent years. Most significantly, the building underwent a staircase replacement remodeling project in November 2023, which was completed and marked as final. The property has faced two code complaints in 2025-2026, relating to structure condition violations and property abatement issues, both of which were ultimately closed. There have been multiple 311 service requests, with the most recent being an open request regarding an obstruction in the right of way (June 2026). Other service requests included traffic sign maintenance (closed May 2026), another right-of-way obstruction (closed May 2026), and various resource recovery matters including dead animal collection (closed March 2026) and garbage management (closed September 2025). While there have been some concerns regarding building conditions and public infrastructure around the property, the completed staircase replacement suggests ongoing maintenance and improvement efforts.

Risk rating

How 4204 Speedway'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
56thpercentile

Out of 439 buildings in this neighborhood, 193 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
