Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The two-family dwelling at 5800 Emerald Forest Circle in the Garrison Park neighborhood, built in 1972 and currently owned by Benjamin Leung Chi Kin and others, has experienced a notable cluster of activity in recent months, particularly in 2026. Most significantly, there were five separate requests for code officer intervention by the Austin Development Services Department between March and May 2026, suggesting ongoing regulatory or compliance matters that warranted official attention. Additionally, there was one animal protection assistance request in March 2026, which has been resolved, and a compost-related service request in April 2026 through Austin Resource Recovery. The concentration of these service requests, particularly the code officer interventions, which are typically associated with addressing potential violations or compliance issues, indicates that the property has been subject to increased scrutiny or has experienced recurring issues that required multiple interventions from city services.

Risk rating

How 5800 Emerald Forest 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
47thpercentile

Out of 389 buildings in this neighborhood, 206 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
