Venice has 49 percent of the UNSHELTERED Homeless in all the ten communities of CD11.

Note:
1. The LAHSA Count numbers only tabulated three types of Shelters: Emergency Shelters, Transitional Housing, and Safe Havens. They are supposed to physically visit these locations.
2. What is missing in the Annual Count homeless summary is the existing and planned concentration and impact of City of LA “HHH” homeless projects including “Bridge Housing,” and private investment homeless housing.
