Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 601 E Covington Dr in the Gracy Woods neighborhood, owned by Christine and John C Ricker, has been standing since 1969. The building's recent service record shows relatively high activity in 2025-2026, with six service requests filed since December 2025, most of which involved waste management services. These include three bulk waste requests and one compost service, all of which have been resolved except for the most recent bulk service request from June 2026, which remains open. Additionally, there were two other service requests in March 2026, one related to street debris that was resolved, and a closed request for a code officer by the Austin Development Services department in May 2026. While the frequency of service requests might suggest some operational challenges, it's worth noting that most of these requests were routine waste management services, and the building has maintained a generally responsive record with only one open request as of mid-2026.

Risk rating

How 601 E Covington Dr'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.
