If you need low income housing in San Diego, and you are a single person with a low to mid wage job, I have two Single Room Occupancy (SRO) locations for you to check out; they are Trolley Court and Peachtree Inn.
If you have no idea what a Single Room Occupancy (SRO) is, please check out the video titled "
Types of Low Income Housing" that is located on the very first page of this blog.
Both properties are located near the Gaslamp Quarter in downtown San Diego, and they are both near the MTS San Diego Trolley (light rail).
They are both good locations if you are attending San Diego City College and you need an affordable housing set-up while you are getting your studies on... Also, if you are just relocating to San Diego, these might be ideal for you to hang for a while until you get to know the place and get a full blown apartment.
I do not live in San Diego, and I have never personally seen either of these properties. However, in my search for reviews I have found everything that ranged from the following reviews:
"OMG! This area of downtown is skid row of san diego!" to "These are actually pretty nice units for the price"
- Trolley Court

- Low Rent from $550 to $635

According to their current ad, you need to swing by and fill out an application, bring government issued ID to view a unit (this is true always for any type of rental viewing), and bring proof of income if you want to apply.
My guess is that good proof of income would be paycheck stubs or an offer letter from your current job....
Peachtree Inn San Diego SRO is located at 901 F Street, and you can call them at 619-233-1100.
As always, if you have had a positive or negative experience with either of these San Diego Single Room Occupancy locations, please leave a comment so other people who are looking for San Diego low income housing opportunities can check it out or beware.
Peace Out....
