La Jolla Alta Eviction Risk: Elevated , San Diego

Average gross rent is $3,501, 51% above the San Diego average. Cost burden runs 67% here against 52.5% across San Diego County. The clearest offset is economic stress at 1/10.

Sitting well above the midpoint, rent-regulation exposure reads 8/10. On the high side, eviction-process difficulty reads 8/10. The voucher gap is 21.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Housing insecurity runs 5.4% against 14.2% nationally. Adults with no health insurance runs 3.4% against 11.3% nationally.

This ground was mapped A ("Best") 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. On the national scale it lands near the 86th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 6% of units are renter-occupied. Rental comparables are thin; price a renewal off the nearest genuine rental sub-market rather than off surrounding sale prices.

CDC social-vulnerability scoring puts the tract at 2.7/10. Of its three components the household composition measure is the least pressured. Poverty sits at 3%, low enough that arrears here usually signal a specific shock rather than a structural income gap.

It tracks the San Diego County average of 7.6 closely.

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.
