Annualized rent equals 38% of average household income of $52,014, past the 30% affordability line, which thins the margin any screening standard has to work with. At $1,642 a month, rents run 26% under what the rest of Chula Vista commands.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.1/10. Against the San Diego County average of 7.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.6 points.

Running hot, tenant-organizing strength reads 8.1/10. Food insecurity runs 30.1% against 17.8% nationally. Against San Diego County at 52.5%, 60% of renters here are cost-burdened.

SNAP participation runs 25.9% against 15.2% nationally. That is riskier than roughly 96% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model.
