Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4509 Avenue B in the Hyde Park neighborhood, owned by Scott & Richard Hinson, was constructed in 1980 and has experienced several notable events in recent years. The property has generated four 311 service requests since 2025, with the most recent occurring in February 2026 related to construction concerns in the right-of-way and parking violation enforcement. Two of the most pressing issues involved infrastructure maintenance, with two separate curb and gutter repair requests filed in May 2025, suggesting potential concerns about the property's access and drainage systems. The building has also experienced utility-related issues, including a telecommunications/gas utility complaint in July 2025. Additionally, there was a storm debris collection request in June 2025, indicating that weather-related events have impacted the property. While all reported issues have been officially closed, the frequency and variety of service requests, particularly those related to infrastructure and utilities, may be worth noting for prospective tenants.

Risk rating

How 4509 Avenue B'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.
