Initial analysis

The two-unit residential property at 5316 Ponciana Drive in Franklin Park, owned by Sergio and Luz Maria Lopez, has been under their ownership since its construction in 1971. The building's record over the past seven years shows minimal but notable activity, with one code complaint filed in October 2023 regarding property abatement, which has since been closed. The most significant cluster of activity occurred in 2025, when there were three separate garbage-related service requests to Austin Resource Recovery, though all these and other service requests were promptly closed. Additionally, there was one parking violation enforcement request to Transportation and Public Works in August 2025, and a request for a code officer from Austin Development Services in October 2025, both of which were also resolved. Scanning the overall record, there doesn't appear to be any pattern of recurring issues that would impact resident safety or comfort, though the requirement for multiple sanitation-related interventions in 2025 is worth noting as a period of heightened service activity.

Risk rating

How 5316 Ponciana 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
40thpercentile
