Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Little Mogadishu

25% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. This is renter territory: 78% of occupied units are tenant-occupied.

At $1,670 a month, rents run 28% under what the rest of San Diego commands. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. It sits 1.4 points above the San Diego County average of 7.6.

On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10. Cost burden runs 47% here against 52.5% across San Diego County.

In the 1930s the federal Home Owners' Loan Corporation graded this ground B ("Still Desirable"). Redlining cut off mortgage credit to whole blocks for decades, and the areas graded D still carry measurably lower ownership and higher rent burden today. Nationally it ranks #4,119 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. On the CDC Social Vulnerability Index the tract reads 6.9/10, which tracks how hard a shock lands on the households already here.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.5 points hotter. Annual rent works out to 26% of average household income of $76,884.

These are ACS 5-year estimates; the score moves when the ACS, court-record, or statute inputs behind it move.
