Los Angeles, with the largest unsheltered homeless population in the U.S., has seen its streets filled with tents and drugs despite billions spent to address homelessness. Reports from the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA) and RAND Corporation reveal a troubling trend: a significant portion of the street homeless—64% in a new survey—are from outside Los Angeles, with many migrating for the city’s favorable weather and available services. Most are from out of state, predominantly from Trump-voting areas, while some even come from foreign countries. Many individuals openly discuss their reasons for moving to L.A., highlighting a "magnet effect" where lenient policies attract homeless individuals. #services #publicpolicy #migration #LosAngeles #homelessness https://www.city-journal.org/article/la-homeless-population-migration?utm_source=virtuous&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=cjdaily&vcrmeid=ODEfTqyG5kGLKJVZGFb9Mw&vcrmiid=Os4d1nrKsE218NCTNZmHTw
