Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Loma Portal

Set annual rent against average income of $90,531 and the ratio lands at 33%, above the conventional 30% ceiling. The severe-burden share is 21%, and it is the single best predictor in this model of a filing that actually reaches judgment. The dominant input is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10. Against the San Diego County average of 7.6, this tract reads riskier for landlords by 1.2 points.

Well under the midpoint, economic stress reads 2.4/10. 47% of renter households cross the 30%-of-income line, lower than the San Diego County average of 52.5%. This ground was mapped B ("Still Desirable") on the 1930s HOLC security maps for San Diego. That grading determined who could get a mortgage, and its imprint on tenure and rent burden is still visible in the ACS data above.

That is riskier than roughly 95% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 4.5/10.

Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.3 points hotter. Average gross rent is $2,459, close to the San Diego average.

All figures here are ACS 5-year estimates for this tract, refreshed as the underlying releases land.
