Kensington Rental Market Report

Owning Rental Property in Kensington

Rentals here are scarce and mostly detached character homes, so pricing reflects the neighborhood’s fixed supply. Crestmont manages residential properties in Kensington, and the current rental data for the area appears on this page, updated on a monthly cycle.

About Kensington

Kensington is a small, distinct pocket north of El Cajon Boulevard, defined by its 1920s Spanish Revival homes, its walkable stretch of Adams Avenue, and an entrance sign that residents treat as a landmark. The neighborhood’s boundaries are tight and its housing stock rarely grows.
