Questions
About the San Diego numbers
- How much will it cost me to park in San Diego?
- Plan on $196 to $227 a month for a typical spot as of September 2026. Cheaper lots sit outside the core, and reserved, covered, or 24/7 spots run above that.
- Is San Diego expensive for parking?
- San Diego ranks #28 of 100 cities tracked, 47% above the national average.
- Do fleets pay the same rates?
- Up to a few dozen vehicles at one site, fleet rates track these consumer rates closely. Larger fleets, oversized vehicles, and secured lots are priced differently.
- What affects the price?
- Locations near airports, stadiums, and other high-demand areas tend to cost more. So do valet-only locations, lots that only offer reserved spots, covered or indoor garages, and 24/7 access. Uncovered, ungated lots are usually the least expensive, along with self-park locations a few blocks outside the core.
- How is this information collected?
- We collect monthly parking rates from thousands of commercial garages and lots every month using publicly available data.
