The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Average gross rent is $2,983, 29% above the San Diego average.

18% are severely burdened past the 50% mark. That cohort absorbs no shock: one repair bill or one cut shift converts straight into arrears. Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10.

Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10. Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.0% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. On the national scale it lands near the 86th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 5.5/10. Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured.

Annual rent works out to 25% of average household income of $145,714. 28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
