Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 1800 Piedmont Ave in Austin's Crestview neighborhood is a modest 1952-built property currently owned by Brian J Vanhouten. The building's service request history over the past seven years shows a consistent pattern of garbage-related issues in 2026, with six separate reports made to Austin Resource Recovery between February and May of that year, all of which have since been closed. The most recent confirmed service requests are for garbage and brush removal in May 2026, indicating ongoing waste management needs. Despite the frequent service requests, there are no recorded complaints or issues related to building safety, maintenance, or resident experience beyond the waste management matters. The relatively recent construction date suggests the building has maintained its original character as a two-family dwelling over its more than 70-year history, with no noted changes to its basic structure or use.

Risk rating

How 1800 Piedmont 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.
