Housing Issues

SOUTH LOS ANGELES, CA - JULY 28, 2026 - - Kevin Paz, 32, sits at his encampment under the 110 freeway on W. 51st Street off S. Grand Ave. in South Los Angeles on July 28, 2026. He lives homeless at the site where the Inside Safe program had provided housing for the homeless living there in the past. Many homeless have returned and taken up residency there once again. Mayor Karen Bass' Inside Safe program has moved more than 6,000 people indoors since it began in December 2022. But many of the locations visited by the program have repopulated, forcing the mayor's team to go back again and again.
