Rancho del Sol Eviction Risk: Elevated

3 census tracts · pop 17,082 · pop-weighted Eviction Risk Score 7.5/10 · range 7.2–8.2

Rancho del Sol is a 3-tract neighborhood of San Diego, CA, population 17,082. That produces an Eviction Risk Score of 7.5/10, Elevated tier. Cost burden runs 64% against 32.4% citywide, putting Rancho del Sol 31.9% over its own city.

33% 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. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1.7/10. On the high side is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint is eviction-process difficulty at 8/10. Scores across the 3 constituent tracts range from 7.2 to 8.2. A 1-point internal spread means block-level underwriting beats area-level here.

4.2% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. At $2,570 a month, rents sit 11% over what the rest of San Diego commands. Among the 89 mapped neighborhoods of San Diego, it ranks #65 by risk, the lower third.

For a like-for-like read, Seventh College at the Village and La Playa score within a fraction of it. Rent takes 16% of average household income, comfortably inside the 30% line and unusually low for a rental sub-market.

Poverty sits at 7%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. 40% of occupied units are renter-occupied.

For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.5 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
