Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 5207 Bennett Avenue in Austin's North Loop neighborhood, owned by Paula Hern, was constructed in 1962 and has experienced several noteworthy incidents in recent months. The most significant cluster of events occurred in June 2026, when there were multiple animal-related service requests, including two reports of injured or sick animals and one general assistance request to Austin Animal Services. This period also saw three consecutive parking violation enforcement requests handled by Austin Transportation and Public Works. The building's record shows a relatively low number of permits and service requests over the past seven years, with only three building permits issued during this period. While the property has maintained its original two-family configuration, the recent concentration of animal-related incidents and parking enforcement requests may indicate increased community activity in the immediate vicinity.

Risk rating

How 5207 Bennett 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

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.
