Los Angeles County created a Department of Homeless Services and Housing this year to coordinate housing, health and social services across the county and its 88 cities.
88 cities?!!
It’s a very large county with a population larger than most countries. Literally.
But also California (well, most of the urban US) has a racist history of creating a bunch of small towns in order to enact minority-exclusionary policies that are difficult to collectively challenge.
I’m saying! Miami-fade only has 39 municipalities.
LA county is massive
The Berkeley poll found 63 percent of likely voters viewed her unfavorably, while 40 percent viewed Raman favorably and 39 percent unfavorably
Wut
Is it 63% or 39%
LA might be a great city if they closed the roads to cars and improved mass transportation
As with all usa cities
It’s a bigger issue in cities with urban sprawl.
New York is geographically constrained because it’s made up of islands. That’s why the buildings got tall, and it’s one of the best cities to live without a car.
LA doesn’t have so many geographical restrictions, so it just grew horizontally to create an urban sprawl nightmare
As with all usa cities except nyc.
Nah, lots of costal cities are geographically constrained.
It applies to peninsulas as well as islands
Fucking do it LA!
Oh noes! Please don’t elect someone who’s going to attract Trump to LA like a fat fly to a lightbulb!
