Skid Row contains one of the largest stable populations (about 4,200–8,000) of homeless people in the United States and has been known for its condensed homeless population since at least the 1930s. Los Angeles is the second-largest city in the U.S. by population and has the second-largest homeless population. HUD estimates that Los Angeles City and County has a homeless population of about 56,257 people. The number of homeless people in the U.S. grew 6 percent between 2016 and 2020 and has increased each year for the past four years. Many of these people — about 39 percent — are living without shelters, according to Security.org’s annual report on the state of homelessness. Additionally, about 1 in 5 homeless people are children. There’s also a significant bed shortage among shelters for homeless people. In 2019, the bed shortage in the U.S. states — the number of homeless people vs. the number of available beds — reached 192,793, according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness. triggers: ✏ asmr pure whispers ✏ asmr history of skid row ✏ asmr whispering Don't forget to subscribe if you liked this video!
