San Diego market rental trends report

Written by Relocity | November 04, 2025

Over the past 3 to 6 months, San Diego rental prices have increased by roughly 2%, showing steady but slowing growth compared to previous years. The market remains resilient as demand stays high in coastal and urban areas, while new apartment construction inland has helped moderate rent escalation. This dynamic reflects a balance between strong renter demand, limited coastal supply, and increased suburban development across Mission Valley and North County. As of Q3 2025, the median rent in San Diego is approximately $2,800 per month.
