The Rand Corp. study finds an 18% increase in homelessness over a year in skid row, Hollywood and Venice. The report calls into question decreases in the official count.
Homelessness among Latinos has shot up in Los Angeles County while other demographic groups have seen a decline over the last two years.removed tents from Centennial Park in Venice
“We came up with some interesting evidence on the kind of housing solutions that will work better,” he said. Many of Rand’s demographic findings were consistent with those LAHSA has perennially reported: The homeless population is predominantly male and disproportionately Black. About half of respondents reported either chronic health conditions or mental health issues or both. People living on the streets are predominantly from Los Angeles County.
A detailed comparison of Rand’s findings with LAHSA’s, Ward said, showed a “mixed bag, in some cases remarkably consistent, in others way off.” In contrast to LAHSA’s study, the Rand report presents its estimates with upper and lower bounds, taking into account a fundamental ambiguity in LAHSA’s counting process: Counters are told to record every individual and every tent or shelter they see, leading to potential double-counting of people who are seen outside their tents or shelters.
