Analysis

What drives eviction risk in Mira Mesa

At $3,048 a month, rents run 32% over what the rest of San Diego commands. Cost burden runs 43% here against 52.5% across San Diego County. Severe burden reaches 17%. Those are renters paying half their income or more, and that is where non-payment filings originate.

On the high side, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. Running hot, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10.

Inability to pay a utility bill runs 4.1% against 9.2% nationally. Utility arrears usually lead rent arrears by a month or two. That is riskier than roughly 86% of the 84,120 US census tracts in this model. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 3.5/10.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 5%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. It tracks the San Diego County average of 7.6 closely.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $154,000. 28% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

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