Yup. No actual rental housing, but it’s so cheap!!!

Or maybe they will pass legislation forcing people to rent out their spare bedrooms?

All California’s should be required to rent every room in their houses to illegals and homeless...rent free. It is the only virtuous thing to do. To do otherwise would be white supremacist and racist .

“...spare bedrooms?”

Ain’t no spare bedrooms in L.A. & S.F.
A lot of landlords are turning apartments into AirBnB, dorms, & “hostels.”

They’re putting as many as 4 or 6 BUNK BEDS in each bedroom.
You get a bunk with shared bathroom & kitchen for what a 1 or 2 bedroom apartment cost last year— $1000-2000.

Some have 20-40 tenants crammed in.

A private 1 or 2 BR now goes for $3000 up.

Employed people are being priced out of apartments where they’ve lived for years, having already paid as much rent as would have already paid off a condo anywhere else.

They’re evicted, & made homeless by predatory landlords who enter their names in the database of evicted, virtually guaranteeing rejection for any future housing.

These employed homeless continue struggling to keep jobs which cannot cover their rent, even if they were able to save 1st, last, & deposit.

I’ve heard of people bedding down in their office cubicles.
Others wander nights, looking for a place to sleep, returning to jobs in the a.m. where their coworkers are unaware.
Eventually, weeks of sleep deprivation results in mental deterioration, the boss notices, and they’re fired.
