Lynwood Hills takes in 4 census tracts of Chula Vista, CA and houses 19,043 people. Scored across those inputs it reaches 6.7/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. roughly one in two of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, clearly above the Chula Vista rate of 35.4%.
Pulling the other way is economic stress, at 1.4/10. The severe-burden share is 21%. Those renters are past the 50% mark, and they miss rent for reasons that have nothing to do with willingness to pay.
Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.7/10. At $2,577 a month, rents sit 16% over what the rest of Chula Vista commands.
Running hot is tenant-organizing strength at 7.4/10. That places it #11 of 16 neighborhoods in Chula Vista.
Only 27% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin here; price renewals off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices. The closest comparables inside the same city are Rancho del Rey and Eastlake Greens. Poverty sits at 6%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.
The 4 tracts here are tightly clustered, 0.6 points apart at the extremes. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $119,292.
The area figure travels well to individual addresses here, though the per-tract table below still carries the detail. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
