The homeless populations in both the county and city of Los Angeles are increasing so rapidly, elected officials say even they are “stunned.” But don’t expect anything other than more government spending, higher taxes and tighter regulations in the near future.
A year after celebrating a small decrease in homelessness, Los Angeles politicians have less to say now that a point-in-time count shows a 16 percent increase in the city and a 12 percent increase across the county. That brings the total number to nearly 59,000 countywide, with over 36,000 in the City of Angels.
