Initial analysis

The property at 948 E 53rd Street in Austin's North Loop neighborhood is a single-unit building constructed in 2013, with its records showing ownership by Alexander Robert Michael II. The building's documented history over the past seven years from 2026 to 2024 reveals limited issues requiring municipal services, with a total of five 311 service requests. The most recent activity consists of three separate Austin Resource Recovery requests between 2025-2026, specifically for bulk and recycling services. Notably, there were two tree-related issues reported to Transportation and Public Works in June 2025, with one being classified as a duplicate. Additionally, there was one non-emergency noise complaint filed with the Austin Police Department in August 2024. While the frequency and nature of service requests suggest typical municipal service interactions rather than significant concerns, the most recent records show particular attention required for waste management services, including both bulk and recycling requests.

Risk rating

How 948 E 53 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
