Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 1608 Southgate Circle in South Lamar, owned by Peschka Jane and Gary T Johnson, was constructed in 1983 and has experienced several municipal service requests over the past seven years. Most notably, there have been multiple Austin Resource Recovery requests in May 2026, including both garbage and recycling matters, with one bulk-related request still pending as of June 2026. The property has also seen attention from Austin Transportation and Public Works, with a closed construction concern in the right-of-way and a successfully addressed pothole repair in May 2026. An unusual incident involving roadside animal sales required intervention from Austin Animal Services in late May 2026, though this matter has since been resolved. While the building has required various municipal services over the years, there are no recorded incidents relating to safety concerns within the building itself, and all recent service requests appear to be routine municipal matters rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 1608 Southgate Cir'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
35thpercentile
