Unclaimed Property in Cayucos
Cayucos's substantial unclaimed property total reflects the coastal town's tourism-driven economy and aging population of retirees who often move away or pass without heirs knowing about all their accounts. Pacific Gas & Electric Company holds $8,300 in unclaimed funds, typically from utility deposits when residents moved from beach rentals or vacation homes along the Embarcadero.
Anthem Inc. is holding $2,800, likely from health insurance premium refunds for seasonal workers in the hospitality industry. The high concentration of premium refunds (564 records) suggests many former employees of local hotels and restaurants near Cayucos State Beach left town without updating addresses with their employers' insurance carriers.
Given the town's proximity to Cal Poly and the transient nature of many residents who come for the surf culture, many young adults likely left accounts dormant when they moved away after college.
