The ACS median gross rent is $1,830 a month across renter-occupied homes. It is an estimate for all renters, not an asking rent for any listing. - Before you sign. Ask about lease length, the security deposit, which utilities are included, parking, pet terms and whether renters insurance is required. - Hazard information. Zone shares describe the area, not one property: 64.3 percent inside a CAL FIRE Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone (SRA 2007, LRA 2011) and 19.2 percent inside a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area. Confirm the zones for a specific parcel during due diligence. Ask the landlord about smoke alarms, evacuation routes and alert sign-ups for the address. - Getting around. 70.0 percent of workers drive alone and 0.8 percent take public transit (Census ACS 5-year). Check parking and the route to your usual destinations. ## How do owning and renting compare in Sunland?
