Initial analysis

The property at 8721 Thunderbird Rd in West Oak Hill is a single-unit residential building constructed in 1965, currently owned by David G. Baker and Melanie A. Guthrie, with records indicating it has been designated as having an Additional Living Quarter improvement type. Over the past seven years, the building's service request history shows minimal activity, with only six documented 311 service requests. The most recent three requests, occurring between November 2025 and March 2026, were related to standard waste management services (garbage and recycling) through Austin Resource Recovery. Prior to these, there was one animal control assistance request in January 2022, and two pothole repair requests in March 2020, one of which was marked as a duplicate and subsequently closed. The relatively low number of service requests, particularly in recent years, combined with their focus on routine municipal services rather than building-specific issues, suggests stable maintenance conditions at this address.

Risk rating

How 8721 Thunderbird Rd'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.
