Is Point Loma a good place to live, and is it safe?

Point Loma is the peninsula on the west side of San Diego Bay. My market report covers it together with Ocean Beach. Homes here sold for a median of $1.65M over the last 90 days.[1] Police split Point Loma into 7 neighborhoods. In 2025, crimes against persons ran from 2.56 per 1,000 residents in La Playa to 19.12 in Ocean Beach, against 9.20 for the City of San Diego overall.[2][3] Whether it's a good fit depends on your budget and what you want close by. Text me and I'll tell you what it's like street by street.

Police now report crime under the FBI's newer NIBRS system. "Crimes against persons" includes simple assault and intimidation, so these numbers run higher than the old "violent crime" figures you'll still see on some websites. Don't compare the two. The citywide rate is from SANDAG's 2025 report.[3]
