Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 6506 Santos St in Montopolis, owned by Michael Romano and built in 2003, has experienced several notable issues in the past year that may impact resident quality of life. Most significantly, there was a structure condition violation complaint filed in January 2025, which was subsequently closed. The property has generated multiple code enforcement interactions, with three code officer requests made in November 2025 alone, and an additional request in April 2025. There was one code violation recorded in the past seven years, suggesting that while violations occur, they are not frequent. Outside of code enforcement matters, there have been several other service requests: Austin Animal Services handled an injured/sick animal case in December 2025, and the Transportation and Public Works department addressed a right-of-way obstruction in November 2025. The Watershed Protection department was involved in drainage pond maintenance in July 2025, indicating some infrastructure maintenance needs. While most issues have been addressed and closed, the frequency of recent service requests and code enforcement actions suggests that the property has faced several maintenance and regulatory challenges in the past year.

Risk rating

How 6506 Santos 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
