About 45,320 people work in Torrey Pines, 4 times its 11,265 residents (Census jobs data, 2023). The rates divide by residents only, so they run high here: most people in Torrey Pines on a weekday live somewhere else. The counts, and how they change from year to year, say more than the rate.
Rates use an estimated population (2020 Census blocks, scaled to today’s city total) of 11,265 for Torrey Pines. Small areas swing more month to month, so all rates here use a 12-month window ending August 2026.
