Homeless Count by Council District - 2019

Data Prepared by Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority Revised July 29, 2019 Homeless Count 2019 Dashboard Methodology Total number of people experiencing homelessness is the sum of (1) the sheltered population (the total number of people staying in emergency shelter, transitional housing, or safe haven programs on the night of the point-in-time count) and (2) the unsheltered population (the total number of people counted by volunteers and the estimated number of people sleeping in the dwellings counted by volunteers). (1) The total number of people experiencing homelessness who slept in an emergency shelter, transitional housing, or safe haven program was reported to LAHSA by each provider and assigned to a census tract. For shelter programs with multiple scattered sites in the LA CoC, an administrative address is used for locating the sheltered population in this dashboard. Shelters that serve persons fleeing domestic or intimate partner violence are excluded due to confidentiality concerns. Persons receiving motel vouchers are excluded in this dashboard because the location of the motel is unknown. (2) The total number of people experiencing homelessness who slept on the street or in a dwelling not meant for human habitation were counted by volunteers on January 22nd, 23rd, or 24th. 3,873 demographic survey interviews were conducted with persons experiencing unsheltered homelessness from December 2018 to March 2019 to describe the population’s demographics and approximate the number of people in each dwelling. The total persons in uninhabitable dwellings was estimated for each type (car, van, camper/RV, tent, or makeshift shelter) and was estimated at the SPA-level for individual and for family households and can be found on our website. Estimates of the people inside these dwellings was rounded to whole numbers for the purposes of this dashboard. Please visit our website for further information at [www.lahsa.org].

Clean Streets Index Segments 2017 Q2

The Los Angeles Clean Streets Index, the first-of-its-kind, is a grading system of every street in Los Angeles. The Bureau of Sanitation drove and scored over 9,000 miles of streets and alleys - each segment received a "cleanliness score" from 1-3. Each street score is based on four factors: litter, weeds, bulky items and illegal dumping. This assessment is repeated every quarter. This assessment is for Quarter 2 of 2017. Los Angeles is leading the way as the only big city in the US conducting a regular cleanliness assessment of every City street.

The Community Partner maintains and operates the Plaza, providing movable tables and chairs, public programs, and ongoing neighborhood outreach. People Street Pedestrian Plazas must remain publicly accessible at all times. You can refer to the [People St projects map] to locate People St projects installed or coming soon within the City of Los Angeles.
Party Tables - Collisions 2009-2013 (SWITRS)

PARTY table which contains information about the parties involved – unique VEH_ID field. A common way to work with data of this structure is to create a party-level table or a victim-level table that has data from all its parents joined to each row. For example, if you plan to do analyses at the victim-level, you can start with a VICTIM table and join in values from corresponding PARTY and CRASH tables. Please refer to this [link] for the related Victim tables. Please refer to this [link] for the related SWITRS collision data. For more references on joining this table to SWITRS collisions, go to this [link] at LA County GIS Portal.

Collisions 2009-2013 (SWITRS)

For more information on the attributes associated with collisions, please [download the codebook]. Collected SWITRS (Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System) Data from 2009 - 2013. Geocoded and prepared by [RoadSafe GIS] * All collisions on non-state highways marked in SWITRS as occurring in LA City jurisdiction * Collisions on state highways where all or a portion of the highway is a surface street: * State highways 42, 213, 1, 27 (and the intersection of Ferry@Seaside and Navy@Seaside on SR 47) * State highway 110 – All between postmile values 0 and .745 * State highway 170 – All between postmile values 9 and 10.61 * State highway 2– All postmile values below 14.08 (Glendale Fwy begins) * Collisions at ramp intersections with local roads. In some cases it can be difficult to distinguish an intersection with a local road or another ramp segment. However, all the collisions with these ramp values are included: 1 – Ramp Exit, Last 50 Feet3 – Ramp Entry, First 50 Feet4 – Not State Highway, Ramp-related, Within 100 Feet5 – Intersection6 – Not State Highway, Intersection-related, Within 250 Feet * Additional fields in the collision data table for a standardized matching address (match_addr), primary road name (m_primaryr), secondary road name (m_secondrd). These are very useful fields for ranking by intersections. RoadSafe GIS utilizes these fields for generating rankings by various safety performance functions. * Party and victim data tables that correspond to the SWITRS collision file. Note that the field names have been updated to reflect the original headers provided by CHP in addition to our several added fields. You can access their [raw data template here].

Los Angeles Climate-Smart Cities Analysis Results

The Trust for Public Land's Climate-Smart Cities Program is founded on the principle that to respond to climate change, cities must restore natural functions of the land by weaving green elements into the built environment. The Climate Smart Cities Program helps cities meet the challenges through the development of spatial data and decision support tools that translate the goals from a city’s strategic climate planning into priority sites for green infrastructure development. The Climate Smart Cities Program categorizes these strategies under the climate objectives of Connecting, Cooling, Absorbing, and Protecting. Data interpretation: 5 = Very High Priority for Green Infrastructure 4 = High Priority for Green Infrastructure 3 = Medium Priority for Green Infrastructure 0-2 = Low Value Values 3, 4, and 5 should be used when assessing highest prioritization from the model.

Zoning

Zoning is a locally regulated law that is used as a guideline for land management control and conformity by establishing specific policy that must be followed in the use of land and buildings. Zoning asserts explicit uses that are permitted under varying circumstances. It dictates reasonable development by protecting property from detrimental uses on nearby properties. Zoning also standardizes the size of lots, the building set backs from roads or adjoining property, maximum height of buildings, the population density, and other land use issues. Zoning is used to designate, regulate and restrict the location and use of buildings, structures and land, for agriculture, residence, commerce, trade, industry or other purposes; to regulate and limit the height, number of stories, and size of buildings and other structures hereafter erected or altered to regulate and determine the size of yards and other open spaces and to regulate and limit the density of population; and for said purposes to divide the City into zones of such number, shape and area as may be deemed best suited to carry out these regulations and provide for their enforcement. These regulations are deemed necessary in order to encourage the most appropriate use of land; to conserve and stabilize the value of property; to provide adequate open spaces for light and air, and to prevent and fight fires; to prevent undue concentration of population; to lessen congestion on streets; to facilitate adequate provisions for community utilities and facilities such as transportation, water, sewerage, schools, parks and other public requirements; and to promote health, safety, and the general welfare all in accordance with the comprehensive plan. For more information, please refer to Section 12.04 of the Los Angeles Planning and Zoning Municipal Code and the Generalized Summary of Zoning Regulations, City of Los Angeles. Refresh Rate: Monthly
General Plan Land Use

The General Plan is the fundamental land use policy document of the City of Los Angeles. It defines the framework by which the City's physical and economic resources are to be managed and utilized over time. Decisions by the City with regard to the use of land; design and character of buildings and open space, conservation of existing housing and provision for new housing; provisions for the continued updating of the infrastructure; protection of environmental resources; protection of residents from natural and man-made hazards; and allocation of fiscal resources are guided by the Plan.
