This long-term project on homelessness in California documents people on the wrong side of the profound social and economic divide.
In 2022, half of all homeless people in the United States were in California where, according to estimates, more than 115,000 are sleeping on the streets, in parks, vehicles, and abandoned buildings. For more than a decade now, California has been the state with the largest homeless population in the United States.
