Safest Apartments

San Diego buildings with top safety scores and minimal violations

How We Calculate Safety Scores

Our safety score considers multiple factors: structural violations, fire safety issues, electrical hazards, plumbing problems, and emergency access. Buildings with scores of 90+ have excellent safety records with minimal or no violations.

Finding Safe Apartments in San Diego

San Diego has strong building codes and regular inspections. However, some buildings maintain better safety records than others. Our data helps you identify which buildings have the best track records.

What Safety Violations Look Like

  • Fire Safety: Missing smoke detectors, blocked exits, expired fire extinguishers
  • Structural: Foundation issues, roof problems, balcony hazards
  • Electrical: Faulty wiring, overloaded circuits, exposed wires
  • Plumbing: Gas leaks, water damage, sewage issues

San Diego Safety Considerations

San Diego sits in an active seismic zone. Buildings constructed after 1976 are required to meet stricter earthquake safety standards. Newer buildings and those that have been retrofitted typically offer better seismic safety.
