Austin street reports: 311 & permits by address.

How to check Austin public records for an address

You research the house and inherit the street. A listing tells you about the property; the city's record tells you about the block around it.

Austin publishes its civic data as open data through the City of Austin open data portal (Socrata). That means anyone can look up what has been reported near an address — no account, no API key. Agent Neighbor runs the query for you and reads it live in your browser.

1. Open the address lookup and type a Austin address, or drop a pin on the map.
2. The report reads the city's feeds for the block and pulls the trailing twelve months of records.
3. You get one Street Context Index plus the individual records behind it — each with its date and a link to the original record, so you can verify anything that matters.

Neighborhoods this covers

The lookup works for any address inside the city — Downtown, East Austin, Hyde Park, South Congress and beyond — because it reads the same citywide feeds rather than a fixed list of neighborhoods.

Frequently asked

How recent is the data?

Reports cover the trailing twelve months and refresh nightly from the city's feed. Austin publishes on its own schedule, so a record filed this morning may take a day or two to appear.

Is this an official city tool?

No. Agent Neighbor is an independent product that reads Austin's public open data. Scores are for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, an inspection, or a safety guarantee. Always verify anything that matters with the original source.
