With housing instability and inflation on the rise, here's what one local expert had to say about homelessness in Sacramento, California.

Leave a comment

Sacramento and the outskirt towns have become more and more populated, largely because people from the San Francisco Bay Area have been moving up here in droves. Unfortunately, this has driven up the crime rate, the price of housing and the formation of a huge homeless population that is not being addressed effectively by the counties or the State. Sadly, even areas that used to be considered safe and elite are affected by these changes. If there’s anything positive to say about living here, it would be that the housing prices and cost of living are still less than the Bay Area. Access to Tahoe and the foothills still remains good, so it is easy to get out of town to venture into the countryside of various areas. But unless you are wealthy the quality of life has gone down and is not pleasant anymore for the average citizen who has to struggle to work to make ends meet.
