La Costa Eviction Risk: Moderate , Carlsbad

Pulling hardest the other way is economic stress at 1/10. It sits 1.8 points below the San Diego County average of 7.6.

Running hot, rent-regulation exposure reads 8.1/10. At $3,501 a month, rents run 25% over what the rest of Carlsbad commands. The voucher gap is 21.5%: households holding assistance that local rents will not absorb, which surfaces as churn rather than arrears.

Food insecurity runs 5.6% against 17.8% nationally. Disability prevalence runs 19.4% against 31.5% nationally. On the high side, tenant-organizing strength reads 7.6/10.

On the national scale it lands near the 76th percentile of the 84,120 tracts scored. Only 9% 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 1.1/10. Rent consumes only 17% of average household income of $240,587, an unusually wide affordability cushion. Statewide the CA average is 7.5, so this tract runs 1.7 points cooler.

Of its three components the socioeconomic standing 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.
