Homeless Camps Are Morphing Into Larger Homeless ‘Cities’ In LA

A massive homeless encampment in Koreatown has grown into what neighbors describe as a “city” of its own — complete with a tennis court, garden, barbecue pit, and even illegally rigged electricity, according to the NY Post.

“The reason why people are sleeping here is because you leaders are sleeping on not taking initiative and action to clean this place up,” resident Daniel King told ABC7.

City Councilmember Katy Yaroslavsky said officials are hamstrung because the property is privately owned. “It’s over-bureaucratic. It’s the city at its worst, sort of not being able to get out of its own way,” she admitted.
