How the heck it would cost almost 1 million to build housing per unit for homeless is beyond me. It shows how corrupt the US has become.
The average cost for each home increased 12% to $596,846 in 2021 from the previous year, with one of the latest projects estimated to be built at almost $837,000 per unit, he added.
With more than 66,000 homeless people across Los Angeles County, the problem of housing them has emerged as one of the top issues ahead of this year’s mayoral election. The number of people on the streets has probably risen to about 80,000 during the pandemic, County Sheriff Alex Villanueva said last year.
