Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 4902 Rowena Avenue in Austin's Hyde Park neighborhood, owned by Pratt James Douglas, was constructed in 1980. The property has had only one documented building permit in the past seven years, issued in August 2019 for window replacements valued at $9,550, though this permit has since expired. The building's service request record shows six interactions with city services between 2025 and 2026, with the most recent being a tree-related issue in the right-of-way recorded in May 2026. The property has had multiple engagements with Austin Resource Recovery, including two separate instances of recycling service requests in December 2025 and April 2025, and a compost service request in December 2025. Additional service requests included a storm drain services issue through the Watershed Protection Department in June 2025, and a general concern recorded by the 311 Command Center in April 2026. The limited number of building permits and service requests over the past seven years, combined with the nature of these requests primarily relating to city services rather than building maintenance or safety concerns, suggests relatively stable building conditions.

Risk rating

How 4902 Rowena 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.

Neighborhood percentile
55thpercentile

Out of 439 buildings in this neighborhood, 198 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
