Internally this is not one market. Tract scores span 5.4 to 8, so two buildings inside the same boundary can carry materially different risk. Severe burden reaches 25%. A tenant at that level absorbs no shock: one cut shift or one repair bill converts directly into arrears.

Food insecurity affects 9.1% of adults, 8.7 points below the national rate. 5.0% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. Among the 4 mapped neighborhoods of Encinitas, it ranks #2 by risk, the middle third.

Annual rent works out to 24% of average household income of $143,412. 43% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
