Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 11431 Ptarmigan Drive, located in the Gracy Woods neighborhood, is a 1982 property owned by Smith Mcdonald. Over the past seven years, there have been four recorded service requests, with the most recent being a bulk waste pickup request in July 2025. The property has experienced several incidents requiring city department intervention, though none appear to indicate consistent patterns of disturbance or significant safety concerns. Notable events include a fireworks complaint in December 2023, a parking violation enforcement request in January 2022, and a short-term rental complaint in November 2019, all of which were resolved and closed by the respective departments. While these service requests indicate occasional neighborhood disruptions, there is no evident pattern suggesting ongoing issues, and the relatively low number of complaints over this extended period may suggest stable tenancy conditions.

Risk rating

How 11431 Ptarmigan 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

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
65thpercentile
