      The average per capita cost come in Los Angeles county in 2023 was $78,302, up from $29,938 according to FRED. Lots of millionaires live in LA, yes, but many poor folks too. Add this to the average cost of a home of ~$950,000 and the privilege seems less likely for those under the median.

      Besides, no one deserves to be homeless.

        I didn’t realize that Fred had commented on this… I feel like a real egghead now… :whimpers:
