Hawaii different though
Can’t compare any city
To actually any spot in Hawaii
It’s just different out there

Yea the gentrification in DC will be a case study one day. The effort to scrub DC of any culture is crazy, and the disrespectful nature they are doing it is sad. I've thought about moving down south every single day...

I live 4-5 blocks from HP, white people are trickling in. They haven't gone deep in HP yet though, but they're starting to populate 3rd St.
Back on topic, there needs to be more treatment centers and housing.

I'm confused, the people renting or buying houses aren't setting the prices, so why do they get the blame?
Shouldn't the landlords/real estate industry in that area be scrutinized?
They only spike up the prices because they expect the "techies" to afford it. I have never been to L.A. and don't pretend to know the market out there.
Can someone break this down for me?

Whos living in those building in Skid Row though? Any other place in the US that's abandoned housing and the city would never allow this.
Camden & other places that are terrible don't even look like this.

Yea Venice is pretty horrible in some areas. Absolutely no offense to my asian/ Indian brothers but I’ve never seen an Asian/Indian homeless person until I came to LA. There’s none in the Milwaukee/ Chicago area.

i used to commute to SF, i'm so glad i don't have to anymore. All you hear about homelessness is true.
Taking BART in general is disgusting. In the morning you have homeless folks sleeping in the train and WILL CLEAR OUT A WHOLE TRAIN due to the smell and even worst when it rains. Bart Stations reeks of piss and homeless folks sleeping. You see this more in the Early AM when Bart Police wakes them up and kick them out. The Powell Station is one of the most disgusting station ever. I used to literally come home and shower before i do anything just the fact i have to sit in bart seats or stand.
Then you have the beggars and some of them just dont give a ****.

Techies and homeless people both on heavy dope, fet, coke, etc so they’re one in the same. You may be a functioning addict but you’re still an ADDICT.

Working in SM, I've seen multiple homeless stop dead in their tracks, pull down their pants, and do their business right in the middle of a crowded sidewalk.

Live downtown in my city and still haven't gotten use to the sight of seeing so many homeless.It's a red state, doubt they're doing **** for them.

Affordable housing yes. Build tall like NY? Don't think it will happen due to risk of earthquake.
EDIT: I just think there are other infrastructure issues to tackle first before building like TALL *** buildings. but i hear you
