Homeless survey just came out for San Diego. Not only are most homeless not transplants from other states (as the popular myth goes), they grew up in San Diego. And they didn't suffer one big financial problem. They slowly fell through the rental system until there was nothing left they could afford.

We need housing reform. We needed it a decade ago.

"What? Sorry, I can't hear you over the roar of traffic!"
