Los Angeles homelessness rises, Raman's district drops
Los Angeles City Councilmember Nithya Raman, a mayoral candidate, highlighted a 49% decrease in street homelessness in her district compared to the previous year, contrasting with an almost 8% citywide increase. She credited her district’s decline to targeted interventions and her homelessness team’s efforts, while criticizing Mayor Karen Bass’s Inside Safe program, which moves homeless individuals into shelter but has seen many return to homelessness. Despite citywide challenges, Raman emphasized her district’s success as evidence of effective homelessness management.
