Homelessness In Our Face In LA

No matter the neighborhood you&#8217;re likely to find homeless people making do on the streets of Los Angeles. Some live in tent cities, like this one near Hollywood and Vine.<br/><br/>Of course these encampments have no amenities. They are often surrounded by garbage including the product of defecation. So they become a public health issue both for the homeless people and those who live or work nearby.<br/><br/>You can pay $30 to park to go to the Hollywood Bowl. Then leave your car and walk through this encampment on the way to the venue.<br/><br/>Some people are lucky enough to live in campers and vans. This one is operable and moves from location to location. Others are broken down and remain in one location permanently.<br/><br/>If you like my postings, please consider subscribing so that they appear in your email inbox whenever I publish something new.
