How We Compare Neighborhoods

StreetSmart's neighborhood comparisons use real data from 330,000+ San Diego buildings to help you make informed decisions. Unlike other sites that rely on subjective opinions, we analyze:

  • Average Building Score: Overall quality based on complaints, permits, and code enforcement
  • 311 Complaint Rates: How many buildings have Get It Done requests
  • Permit Activity: Recent renovations and building investments
  • Code Enforcement: Active code enforcement cases in the area
  • Beach Proximity: Distance to San Diego's famous beaches

Each comparison includes links to the best-rated buildings in both neighborhoods, so you can start your apartment search with confidence.
