· range 6.3–8.5
San Luis Rey takes in 7 census tracts of Oceanside, CA, population 32,863. Scored across those inputs it reaches 7.1/10, placing it in the Elevated tier. 55% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, well clear of the Oceanside rate of 34.5%.
26% 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 7 tracts inside this boundary do not behave alike. Individual scores run 6.3 to 8.5, a 2.2-point gap wide enough that the area average misleads on any specific address. The dominant input is tenant-organizing strength at 8.3/10.
Running hot is rent-regulation exposure at 8/10. Well under the midpoint is economic stress, at 2.2/10.
That places it #5 of 10 neighborhoods in Oceanside. For a like-for-like read, Shefield and The Knolls of Calavera Hills score within a fraction of it.
Social vulnerability runs high at 7.6/10, concentrating the disaster- and displacement-exposure this model treats as a lagging risk input. Average gross rent runs $2,362, close to the Oceanside average.
Annual rent works out to 30% of average household income of $93,677. 44% of occupied units are renter-occupied.
For a specific building, read the per-tract breakdown below rather than the 7.1 headline, because the internal range is too wide to average safely. The number is rebuilt whenever its ACS, court-record, or statutory inputs change.
