Park Haven Eviction Risk: High

4 census tracts · pop 23,244 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 9.4/10 · range 8.9–9.9

Park Haven spans 4 census tracts of San Diego, CA, population 23,244. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 9.4/10, High tier. Cost burden runs 54% against 32.4% citywide, putting Park Haven 21.9% over its own city.

32% are severely burdened, paying half their income or more in rent. That cohort has no absorption capacity for an unexpected bill, and it is where non-payment filings originate. Pulling the other way is supply constraint, at 1/10. At $1,554 a month, rents sit 33% under what the rest of San Diego commands.

67% of occupied units are rented, so comparables are plentiful and vacancy risk is low, but a mispriced renewal loses the tenant to a building two streets over. CDC survey data puts housing insecurity at 26.8% of adults, against 14.2% nationally. Sitting well above the midpoint is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10.

Running hot is eviction-process difficulty at 8/10. Food insecurity affects 32.3% of adults, 14.5 points above the national rate. The 4 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 8.9 to 9.9, a 1-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address.

Among the 89 mapped neighborhoods of San Diego, it ranks #9 by risk, the upper third. The closest comparables inside the same city are Valencia Park and Science Research Park.

Underwrite the address, not the area: with 1 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.
