On September 19, 2019, BBC News published an article titled Los Angeles: Why tens of thousands of people sleep rough. By Daniel Flaming and Gary Blasi.
Los Angeles always know as one of the famous cities of the United States, but the city also has nearly 60,000 homeless people, President Trump also mentioned, that the growth of homeless people will destroy the glamorous of the city. So what was the reason that causes these issues? Because of jobs that pay little with a high-cost house, Los Angeles population has grown a lot since the past 30 years but then are too little number of new houses has been built, therefore, people can not afford for the rental fees. Voters in Los Angeles have approved to build 10,000 housing units for homeless, but until now there only enough for 7,000. Not only Los Angeles, but also New York City and other cities also increasing the population of homeless people. the percent of homeless have been a big issue but there are not many solutions that can help solve the problem, so I hope that people can view the problem more serious and take more actions about it.
