I live in a former hotel in downtown L.A. renovated into microflats. It's no frills, but safe and clean. New tenants pay $1000-1150 per month with all utilities included.

Nobody is being paid in Euros in Los Angeles. We get paid in U.S. Dollars that buy so little at this point that they might as well be dollars out of a Monopoly game.
There are several 'communities' of tiny homes that look like metal dog sheds, often with two bunks inside shared by strangers. It costs $100,000 per resident per year to run them!
Homeless in L.A. since 2008. I have lived here since 1979 and the most expensive apartment I had that entire time was a 1 Bedroom Ocean view apartment right on the corner of Sunset and Speedway in Venice that back in 1987 was renting for 875 a month. Now you probably couldn't even find a room in somebody's house in Van Nuys for 875 a month. And if you did it would be over-priced. So, although I didn't become homeless by choice , and would obviously much rather still have an apartment, I don't envy any of you in your ridiculously over-priced domiciles where you now have to make a couple thousand dollars a week just to be able to afford a bachelor's apartment that probably won't even have a kitchen to cook in.
Greed at a different level is playing out in all of these programs, which is why they aren't working. It's ANOTHER human issue that we need to deal with. We need to recruit the right people to do these projects so that they will succeed.
At the end, the video shows us the homeless drug addict's squalid living space and the narrator talks about her extreme poverty. Well, yeah. If she doesn't work and chooses to spend whatever money she has on drugs, then what else would he expect her to live in? A penthouse suite?
The State of California distributed funding to cities, the city has to manage to source affordable housing. If the city fails, the funding will be taken away
The mild weather in California is the main reason people are able to survive as homeless. The high rent push people out into the streets. To rent, you have to prove that your income is 3 times higher than your rent. Not many blue collar jobs can afford rent in this system. Never cover in the media are the long term health issues when sleeping in a car for years, such as poor blood circulation, which lead to heart disease. Spin pain, which means they are not able to work at entry level jobs such as fast food, retail etc because they are required to stand for 7 & half hour on their feet. Without proper and healthy diet, their health continues to deteriorating. So, not everyone is a drug addict. Many low paying workers cannot afford to rent, so they live in their vehicle 🚑

$2,200/month for 1 bedroom? That's is not a true average! It's at least $2,500+ to start with a studio
£2,200, which is $1,800.

That's crazy you can't find an apartment when you make $3000/month

Homeless people in LA use Euro as a currency? 🤯 How cosmopolitan of them!

They should be visited occasionally to check on their progress if they are not endangering the community.
LA county has been syphoning finds for over a decade with nothing to show for it... don't hold your breath
Didn't someone build them a bunch of tiny houses and the state just took them and destroyed them?

22 billion dollar mismanaged in California in fact ended up with more homeless people sleeping anywhere they can cartoon boxes, cars whenever

Even you provide housing for homeless, they must be screened for drugs, mental health, capacity to be independent.
I am sorry but you haven’t fully covered this problem WHAT IS THE RESOLUTION….show us….what the LA county really do?! 😮

do we have to go back to living in mud huts and igloos? modern houses just seem so expensive.
