Bel Etage Neighborhood Eviction Risk: Elevated

4 census tracts · pop 29,325 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 6.7/10 · range 5.1–7.7

Bel Etage Neighborhood takes in 4 census tracts of San Diego, CA, population 29,325. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 6.7/10, in the Elevated tier. Against a San Diego baseline of 32.4%, 56% of renters here cross the 30%-of-income line.

Severe burden reaches 36%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears. Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 5.1 to 7.7, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.3/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 7.7/10. 3.6% of adults report being unable to pay a utility bill, below a 9.2% national figure. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two.

Food insecurity affects 8.0% of adults, 9.8 points below the national rate. Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 7.1/10. Average gross rent is $2,500, 8% above the San Diego average of $2,313.

That places it #89 of 89 neighborhoods in San Diego. At 22% renter-occupied, this is predominantly owner territory, and rental comps have to be drawn from further out.

Rent takes 15% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market. Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 2.6 points between its best and worst tract, the per-tract table below is the operative number. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
