Sunset Cliffs Eviction Risk: Elevated , San Diego

At $3,363 a month, rents run 45% over what the rest of San Diego commands. The main counterweight is economic stress at 1/10. Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10. Food insecurity runs 5.5% against 17.8% nationally. SNAP participation runs 5.0% against 15.2% nationally.

Against San Diego County at 52.5%, 47% of renters here are cost-burdened. The voucher gap is 16.7%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears. 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.

Nationally it ranks #11,988 of 84,120 for landlord eviction difficulty. CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 1.9/10.

Of its three components the housing type and transport measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 2%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

Tract-level figures come from the ACS 5-year release and are rebuilt whenever that, the court-record feed, or the statutory ledger behind the score changes.
