California saw a surge in homeless deaths during the pandemic. But for a number of reasons, that same surge did not happen across the country.
Los Angeles county has been experiencing ‘a rash of profoundly lonely and yet very public deaths’.
On paper, New York City has more unhoused people than Los Angeles County. In their most recent published reports, New York officials counted 78,000 homeless people among the city’s population of more than 8 million, compared with 64,000 unhoused people tallied in a count carried out in Los Angeles in 2020, where the county has about 10 million people.
And the mortality rates are necessarily different, she said, because the unhoused in New York skew much younger — often families with children — than those in California, where the homeless are more commonly older and single.
