A recent count of homelessness in Los Angeles has yielded mixed results. While the number of people living on the streets increased, the number of families reported to be homeless decreased. According to the count, family homelessness is down by 27% in LA and 34% across the county.

However, some providers and the agency overseeing the count are skeptical of these numbers. They believe that funding cuts and declining resources may have affected the accuracy of the count. Further details on the count and the concerns surrounding its accuracy are available from the LA Homeless Services Authority and local news sources.
