His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>As California struggles with a crisis in affordable housing, state lawmakers are trying to improve a severe shortage of housing available to renters who have federal Section 8 vouchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vouchers allow tenants to pay only 30% of their income toward rent with federal assistance to pay the rest. But most landlords do not accept tenants who pay with vouchers, saying they are too burdensome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Reina Richter, disabled Fresno resident who has been unable to find housing with her Section 8 voucher\"]'That ‘No’ is powerful. It’s a struggle ... If I lose my voucher, [I don't know] what I’m going to do.'[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, applicants can wait years to qualify for the Section 8 vouchers and, when they do, they often can’t find housing before the vouchers expire, usually within 60 days. Last year in Fresno, roughly 17% of the 21,000 people who applied for a voucher got one. But less than half who did found a place before the clock ran out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s billed as a golden ticket,” said Alexander Harnden, a policy advocate for the Western Center on Law and Poverty. “At this point, I describe it as a ticket to last summer’s movie. If you can find where it’s playing, that’s great. Otherwise it’s just a piece of paper.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Preston Prince, executive director of Fresno’s housing authority, attributed the trouble in securing housing to multiple factors: rising housing costs, poor credit scores and renting histories, and landlords who refuse to accept Section 8 vouchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State lawmakers are weighing two very different remedies to the problem in a state with an intensifying housing crisis that has become a pillar of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s first-year agenda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB521\">One of the bills,\u003c/a> introduced by Sen. Anthony Portantino, a La Cañada Flintridge Democrat, would give landlords more incentive to accept Section 8 tenants by providing a tax break equal to 3% of the voucher’s value. The bill is estimated to cost the state $48.5 million over the next three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB329\">The other bill\u003c/a> from Sen. Holly Mitchell, a Los Angeles Democrat, would make it illegal for landlords to discriminate against tenants who receive federal housing vouchers or local housing assistance. Current law prohibits landlords from several categories of discrimination including income. Mitchell’s bill would expand the law to require that landlords consider tenants equally regardless of whether housing assistance is one of their sources of income. Landlords believed to discriminate would risk lawsuits from the state Department of Fair Employment and Housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both bills are scheduled to be considered Friday in the state Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Section 8 in California\" tag=\"section-8\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alongside “no smoking” and “no pets,” California landlords often write “No Section 8” in their rental ads on websites like Craigslist and Zillow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recent search on Zumper.com, a rental website that includes a Section 8 filter, found fewer than 1% of the more than 16,500 rental postings for Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Sacramento, San Jose, Fresno and Oakland combined accepted Section 8 vouchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The search is even more difficult for units that are priced within the limits of Section 8 vouchers. Voucher holders must find apartments priced within the standard set by their local housing authority, which ranges from 90% to 110% of the Fair Market Rent, a county-wide number set by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across those same cities, a Zumper search found just one Oakland unit and two Fresno units that accepted Section 8 vouchers among a total of 770 two-bedroom listings that had monthly rents below each city’s Fair Market Rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the last two months, Fresno resident Reina Richter has spent upwards of five hours browsing the internet, calling landlords, and visiting apartment complexes, three to four days a week, to find someone who will take her voucher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That ‘No’ is powerful,” said Richter. “It’s detouring. It’s a struggle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richter, who has dwarfism and diabetes, receives disability and supplemental security income from the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t even know how someone would have a full time job and try to find a place,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Leah Simon-Weisberg, Centro Legal de la Raza\"]'In the same way it’s unacceptable to say ‘No Jews’…, it has to be equally unacceptable to say ‘No Section 8.'

Or maybe I move in with a family member ... I don’t know at that point, if I lose my voucher, what I’m going to do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nicknamed after Section 8 of the federal Housing Act, the Housing Choice Voucher program is the country’s largest low-income housing assistance program, helping about 2.2 million households secure housing in the private rental market. The program was created in the 1970s as an alternative to public housing projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, advocates for the poor say that landlords often reject Section 8 tenants based on racist or class stereotypes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s gotten so bad that it’s almost completely undermined the initial purpose of the Section 8 program in that it was supposed to allow people that were financially disadvantaged to live in high-resource communities,” said Leah Simon-Weisberg, who leads the tenants rights program at Centro Legal de la Raza in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In the same way it’s unacceptable to say ‘No Jews’…, it has to be equally unacceptable to say ‘No Section 8.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11771041\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Section-8-photo-text-body-800x500.jpg\" alt=\"Reina Richter says applicants far outnumber the available housing in Fresno.\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11771041\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Section-8-photo-text-body-800x500.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Section-8-photo-text-body-160x100.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Section-8-photo-text-body-1020x637.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Section-8-photo-text-body-1200x749.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Section-8-photo-text-body.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Reina Richter says applicants far outnumber the available housing in Fresno. \u003ccite>(Craig Kohlruss/The Fresno Bee)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Landlord and real estate lobbies oppose Mitchell’s bill because they say the red tape required to work with federal agencies is burdensome and can cost money through vacancies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Greg Terzakis, senior vice president of the California Apartment Association, said it can take weeks to get inspections, which are required before units can qualify for Section 8 vouchers. He also said the federal money is sometimes late. Plus, Section 8 requires a one-year lease while some landlords prefer month-to-month contracts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Normally, renters give you an application, you run a background check, credit, say yes or no and you’re done,” he said. “But with Section 8, there’s an additional paperwork packet. You have to take it to the housing authority, once it’s reviewed they have to send you a letter telling you when the inspection is going to be.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fresno’s Housing Authority acknowledged the process can be difficult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There may be some inconsistencies on our part. Those are things we are working on through monitoring and training. We hear them,” said Angie Nguyen, chief of staff at the Fresno Housing Authority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Affordable Housing\" tag=\"affordable-housing\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Portantino’s bill attempts to address landlords’ concerns. If passed together, the two pending bills could represent a comprehensive solution, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Section 8 — It’s real money, it’s valid resources,” he said. “There’s really no reason not to take it. I think reminding the landlords that there’s no reason not to take it and then providing them an incentive for taking it, that’s a complementary approach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A handful of local governments have seen improvement after passing incentives similar to those proposed by Portantino’s bill, sometimes in conjunction with discrimination bans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, Marin County offered up to $3,000 to protect landlords from income loss due to vacancies or property damage related to Section 8 tenants, and passed a ban on voucher discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rate at which Marin voucher holders found rentals before their vouchers expired nearly doubled, from 30% in 2015 to 60% in 2018. Costs have been a problem, however, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/periodicals/em/winter19/highlight3.html\">HUD report\u003c/a> published this year. And rent increases in the area have prevented the housing authority from issuing \u003ca href=\"https://www.marinhousing.org/waitlist.html\">any new vouchers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several local governments have also approved bans on voucher discrimination similar to the state proposal in Mitchell’s bill including Santa Clara County, San Francisco, San Diego and Berkeley. \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-section-8-discrimination-20190618-story.html\">Los Angeles\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/08/13/san-jose-considers-new-law-barring-section-8-voucher-discrimination/\">San Jose\u003c/a> passed similar protections this summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Berkeley ban, passed in 2017 has had little impact because the city didn’t invest in landlord education or enforcement, according to Simon-Weisberg, who also serves on the Berkeley housing advisory commission. San Francisco’s ban is more effective because the city attorney has \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfcityattorney.org/2018/04/12/herrera-wins-victory-low-income-tenants/\">proactively sued landlords\u003c/a>, sending a strong message across the city, Simon-Weisberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in both cities, online rental postings that explicitly don’t accept Section 8 vouchers abound, despite the local laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other parts of the country, research indicates the discrimination law change has had more impact. Just 31% of screened rental ads denied vouchers in Newark, New Jersey, where a statewide anti-discrimination law has been in place since 2002, compared to 76% in Los Angeles, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/portal/sites/default/files/pdf/Landlord-Acceptance-of-Housing-Choice-Vouchers.pdf\">2018 Urban Institute study commissioned by\u003c/a> HUD. The rate was just 15% in Washington, D.C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mitchell says that outlawing voucher discrimination won’t solve the shortage of landlords who take Section 8, but it will make a worthwhile dent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The whole point of this bill is, give me a shot. It doesn’t mandate that you accept Section 8. But it does say, stop disallowing me from even applying,” Mitchell told CalMatters’ Matt Levin and Los Angeles Times’ Liam Dillon \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/multimedia/podcasts/gimme-shelter/2019/08/podcast-how-housing-vouchers-work-or-dont-in-california/\">on this week’s episode of “Gimme Shelter\u003c/a>: The California Housing Crisis Podcast.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Manuela Tobias is a journalist at The Fresno Bee.

Anthony Portantino, a La Cañada Flintridge Democrat, would give landlords more incentive to accept Section 8 tenants by providing a tax break equal to 3% of the voucher’s value. The bill is estimated to cost the state $48.5 million over the next three years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201920200SB329\">The other bill\u003c/a> from Sen. Holly Mitchell, a Los Angeles Democrat, would make it illegal for landlords to discriminate against tenants who receive federal housing vouchers or local housing assistance. Current law prohibits landlords from several categories of discrimination including income. Mitchell’s bill would expand the law to require that landlords consider tenants equally regardless of whether housing assistance is one of their sources of income. Landlords believed to discriminate would risk lawsuits from the state Department of Fair Employment and Housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both bills are scheduled to be considered Friday in the state Assembly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

If passed together, the two pending bills could represent a comprehensive solution, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Section 8 — It’s real money, it’s valid resources,” he said. “There’s really no reason not to take it. I think reminding the landlords that there’s no reason not to take it and then providing them an incentive for taking it, that’s a complementary approach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A handful of local governments have seen improvement after passing incentives similar to those proposed by Portantino’s bill, sometimes in conjunction with discrimination bans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, Marin County offered up to $3,000 to protect landlords from income loss due to vacancies or property damage related to Section 8 tenants, and passed a ban on voucher discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rate at which Marin voucher holders found rentals before their vouchers expired nearly doubled, from 30% in 2015 to 60% in 2018. Costs have been a problem, however, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/periodicals/em/winter19/highlight3.html\">HUD report\u003c/a> published this year. And rent increases in the area have prevented the housing authority from issuing \u003ca href=\"https://www.marinhousing.org/waitlist.html\">any new vouchers\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several local governments have also approved bans on voucher discrimination similar to the state proposal in Mitchell’s bill including Santa Clara County, San Francisco, San Diego and Berkeley. \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-section-8-discrimination-20190618-story.html\">Los Angeles\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/08/13/san-jose-considers-new-law-barring-section-8-voucher-discrimination/\">San Jose\u003c/a> passed similar protections this summer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Berkeley ban, passed in 2017 has had little impact because the city didn’t invest in landlord education or enforcement, according to Simon-Weisberg, who also serves on the Berkeley housing advisory commission. San Francisco’s ban is more effective because the city attorney has \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfcityattorney.org/2018/04/12/herrera-wins-victory-low-income-tenants/\">proactively sued landlords\u003c/a>, sending a strong message across the city, Simon-Weisberg said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in both cities, online rental postings that explicitly don’t accept Section 8 vouchers abound, despite the local laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other parts of the country, research indicates the discrimination law change has had more impact. Just 31% of screened rental ads denied vouchers in Newark, New Jersey, where a statewide anti-discrimination law has been in place since 2002, compared to 76% in Los Angeles, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/portal/sites/default/files/pdf/Landlord-Acceptance-of-Housing-Choice-Vouchers.pdf\">2018 Urban Institute study commissioned by\u003c/a> HUD. The rate was just 15% in Washington, D.C.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mitchell says that outlawing voucher discrimination won’t solve the shortage of landlords who take Section 8, but it will make a worthwhile dent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The whole point of this bill is, give me a shot. It doesn’t mandate that you accept Section 8. But it does say, stop disallowing me from even applying,” Mitchell told CalMatters’ Matt Levin and Los Angeles Times’ Liam Dillon \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/multimedia/podcasts/gimme-shelter/2019/08/podcast-how-housing-vouchers-work-or-dont-in-california/\">on this week’s episode of “Gimme Shelter\u003c/a>: The California Housing Crisis Podcast.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Manuela Tobias is a journalist at The Fresno Bee.

"content": "\u003cp>Ulrik Binzer used to rent out his house north of San Francisco on Airbnb. It was enough money to pay for his family to fly to Denmark to visit relatives. But then his town suddenly banned short-term rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Binzer says there was no debate — it was just an agenda item. \"No one knew about it,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It left him wondering: What's going on here?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's how Binzer became a new sort of sheriff for the digital age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Millions of Airbnb-type rentals are popping up in residential neighborhoods across the United States. That leaves cities struggling to enforce rules around everything from problem party houses to investors buying up too many rental properties, which some studies say pushes up housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Binzer, who works in Silicon Valley, saw an opportunity to use technology to tame the Wild West landscape of short-term rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2015, he went to a town meeting and started researching the issue. He realized cities were really struggling to deal with all these short-term rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those cities was Nashville, Tennessee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We had a problem,\" says Sean Braisted, who works in Nashville's code-enforcement department. For one thing, it was hard to get homeowners to obtain rental permits and pay taxes on their rental income. And Nashville is a big party town, Braisted says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would have problems with essentially party houses that would try to pull as many beds into one house as possible and cram as many people in there,\" he says. \"We've had complaints about people allegedly having sex parties to doing all sorts of things within short-term rental properties.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In residential neighborhoods, Nashville allows these Airbnb-type rentals only for houses occupied by their owners. The goal is to cut down on investor-owned party houses or having too many investor-owned short-term rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Braisted says the rules were hard to enforce. For one thing, you usually don't see the actual address of a property on these rental sites until you agree to rent it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in California, Binzer realized that for cities trying to enforce these rules, \"it was like bringing a knife to a gunfight.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cities manage compliance manually, one property at a time, which takes time, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They essentially go and do a drive-by, or they try to book the property so they can get the address and then they catch them and it's like a sting operation,\" he says. \"You can't do that when you have thousands of these, right?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Binzer saw an opportunity to use his technology background to help cities get this rapidly growing short-term rental phenomenon under control. He got some software developers on board, and they knocked together a bare-bones startup company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We went out and started talking to cities and very quickly got to something like 20 customers\" within a couple of months, Binzer says. Today, he says his company, Host Compliance, is working with more than 300 towns and cities across the U.S. and Canada.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nashville is one of them. The city is using Binzer's technology to see if properties on the short-term rental sites have the right permits. \"They crawl the Internet through those sites, and then they match those up with property records, assessor photos of the front of the properties,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Host Compliance uses artificial intelligence software to figure out the address and owner. Then, people renting without a permit are told to get one or stop renting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in Nashville, Braisted says it's working. After two years, he says, the city is bringing in 50% more money annually in short-term rental taxes. And the crackdown has found about 2,500 rental operators who were breaking the rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around the country, local officials also worry about short-term rentals boosting the cost of housing. That has squeezed out people like New Orleans resident April Leigh, who owns a neighborhood small business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My boyfriend and I were in this house, and it was cheap rent that we could both afford,\" she says. \"It was close to my business, so I could bike or walk there.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says that in recent years, investors have been buying up a lot of rental properties that locals were living in and have been turning them into Airbnbs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When that happened with the house she used to live in, she says she and her boyfriend were forced to move. She says it happened to her neighbors, too. \"People have told me they're the only renters on the block — the rest is all Airbnb houses,\" Leigh says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The influx of Airbnbs made it a lot harder for her to find an affordable place to rent, she says.

He realized cities were really struggling to deal with all these short-term rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those cities was Nashville, Tennessee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We had a problem,\" says Sean Braisted, who works in Nashville's code-enforcement department. For one thing, it was hard to get homeowners to obtain rental permits and pay taxes on their rental income. And Nashville is a big party town, Braisted says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We would have problems with essentially party houses that would try to pull as many beds into one house as possible and cram as many people in there,\" he says. \"We've had complaints about people allegedly having sex parties to doing all sorts of things within short-term rental properties.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In residential neighborhoods, Nashville allows these Airbnb-type rentals only for houses occupied by their owners. The goal is to cut down on investor-owned party houses or having too many investor-owned short-term rentals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Braisted says the rules were hard to enforce. For one thing, you usually don't see the actual address of a property on these rental sites until you agree to rent it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in California, Binzer realized that for cities trying to enforce these rules, \"it was like bringing a knife to a gunfight.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cities manage compliance manually, one property at a time, which takes time, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They essentially go and do a drive-by, or they try to book the property so they can get the address and then they catch them and it's like a sting operation,\" he says. \"You can't do that when you have thousands of these, right?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Binzer saw an opportunity to use his technology background to help cities get this rapidly growing short-term rental phenomenon under control. He got some software developers on board, and they knocked together a bare-bones startup company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We went out and started talking to cities and very quickly got to something like 20 customers\" within a couple of months, Binzer says. Today, he says his company, Host Compliance, is working with more than 300 towns and cities across the U.S. and Canada.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nashville is one of them. The city is using Binzer's technology to see if properties on the short-term rental sites have the right permits. \"They crawl the Internet through those sites, and then they match those up with property records, assessor photos of the front of the properties,\" he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Host Compliance uses artificial intelligence software to figure out the address and owner. Then, people renting without a permit are told to get one or stop renting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in Nashville, Braisted says it's working. After two years, he says, the city is bringing in 50% more money annually in short-term rental taxes. And the crackdown has found about 2,500 rental operators who were breaking the rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around the country, local officials also worry about short-term rentals boosting the cost of housing. That has squeezed out people like New Orleans resident April Leigh, who owns a neighborhood small business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My boyfriend and I were in this house, and it was cheap rent that we could both afford,\" she says. \"It was close to my business, so I could bike or walk there.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says that in recent years, investors have been buying up a lot of rental properties that locals were living in and have been turning them into Airbnbs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When that happened with the house she used to live in, she says she and her boyfriend were forced to move. She says it happened to her neighbors, too. \"People have told me they're the only renters on the block — the rest is all Airbnb houses,\" Leigh says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The influx of Airbnbs made it a lot harder for her to find an affordable place to rent, she says. She was so frustrated that after she got kicked out, she decided to leave a message for the next tourists renting the house she used to live in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770647\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"April Leigh spray-painted a message for tourists renting the New Orleans house in which she used to live after she was evicted from it and the new landlord converted it into a short-term rental property.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11770647\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-1376x1032.jpg 1376w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-1044x783.jpg 1044w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-632x474.jpg 632w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85-536x402.jpg 536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/img_20180205_115913-e26e58ce8b0612a83b5c75806128398315c2e5d2-s1600-c85.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">April Leigh spray-painted a message for tourists renting the New Orleans house in which she used to live after she was evicted from it and the new landlord converted it into a short-term rental property. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of April Leigh)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"I got a can of spray paint and drove straight to the house and wrote on the sidewalk, 'This Airbnb displaced 5 people,' \" Leigh says.

Statewide, roughly 37% of Californians age 18 to 34 live with their parents, according to U.S.Census Bureau data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this pricey part of Southern California, where the average home is valued at well over $700,000, about 55% of young adults shack up with mom and/or dad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[My wife and I] had an apartment here for two years,” said Ostheimer. “But I was spending like 30 grand a year in rent, and I could have had that in my savings right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite a booming economy and sizzling job market, millennial, and now Generation Z, Californians are as likely to live at home as young Californians were a decade ago during the depths of the Great Recession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This has, I think, surprised many of us, including myself,” said Richard Fry, a senior researcher with the Pew Research Center, who says he expected multi-generational living arrangements to decline as the economy recovered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Clearly in certain areas rents have gone up and the cost of living independently has increased.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s everything you need to know about the roughly 3.6 million Californians living with mom and dad into their 20’s and early 30’s. Yes, including the sex stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Geography of Living With Your Parents\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>California is not the only state with a high rate of young adults living with mom and dad. The living arrangement is equally common in high-cost states such as New York and Massachusetts. In New Jersey, an astonishing 46% of 18- to 34-year olds stay with at least one of their parents, according to Census Bureau data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking at where in California young adults are living with their parents explains a lot about the reasons why. Somewhat counterintuitively, expensive urban cores in places such as San Diego and San Francisco actually have relatively low rates of young adults living at home, owing to the large numbers of twenty-somethings who shack up with roommates to defray housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hotspots where stay-at-homers are most ubiquitous usually come in one of two flavors: affluent suburbs near the coast, or lower-income areas often farther inland and with a high concentration of Latino households.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Places like Mission Viejo, with a median household income of over $100,000, are a good example of that first flavor. So are expensive Southern California communities like Palos Verdes or Bay Area burbs like Cupertino and Saratoga, where more than half of young adults live at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770089\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11770089\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-160x115.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1020x734.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1200x863.png 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1.png 1832w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">CalMatters and \u003ca href=\"https://esrimedia.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Minimalist/index.html?appid=b0422b74cdb442b1bdbe5d23a9835e0c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Esri\u003c/a> analysis of American Community Survey data.

The vast majority who are not in school are working at least part time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps unsurprisingly, those who are working typically aren’t making much money.

Vicki and Logan are pseudonyms — they requested their real names not be used for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Logan also lives with his parents, which made finding a place to have sex somewhat problematic, at least early in the relationship. Vicki’s parents forbid Logan from spending the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So on weekdays after class, Vicki would tell her parents she would be studying late — like 3 a.m. late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At times it would have been more comfortable or more convenient if we could go to like an apartment or a room in general,” said Vicki. “But for a while it was fun.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three months into the relationship, Vicki and Logan now typically get intimate in Logan’s bedroom at his parents’ place. Logan says his parents generally don’t care, or at least haven’t told him if they do. He chips in on the mortgage anyway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a new world for both parents and children,” said Dr. Helen Fisher, a researcher on sex and love at the Kinsey Institute. “In my day, one never took a boy home. Never.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"housing\" label=\"More Articles on Housing\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fisher said parents are generally less concerned about their adult children having sex in their house than they are about their children saving up enough money to buy a house of their own one day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a certain type of parent might actually prefer to keep their children and their partners this close.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some people might be pleased with it because they get to know their child in a new way, and they get to know some of the people they are going around with,” said Fisher. “They’re helicopter parents.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even while parents are more sexually permissive than they used to be, it doesn’t mean it’s a boon to your average young person’s sex life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s impacting their love life in an important way — they’re having less sex,” said Fisher. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lots of ink has been spilled in recent years on the so-called “\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/12/the-sex-recession/573949/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">sex recession\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">” — why younger people are having less sex than they used to.

But over the last 60 years, young adults are substantially less likely to be partnered or to be married.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s high cost of living is complicating that reasoning. In south Orange County, where living with your parents well into young adulthood is relatively free of stigma, moving out is no guarantee your love life will improve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ian Baker is 29 and works two low-wage jobs, one at a bowling alley near Mission Viejo. He moved out of his mother’s place a little less than a year ago, and hasn’t been on a date since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Living with my parents it actually wasn't that hard to try and meet girls. Honestly it became harder when I moved out, just because of the fact that in order to move out I had to start working two jobs,\" said Baker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baker now pays $700 a month in rent to split a two-bedroom apartment with three roommates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The irony isn’t lost on him. But Baker takes solace in the fact that he enjoys a romantic step-up from at least one of his roommates. The one who lives in the living room.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At least I have a door, he doesn’t” said Baker. “So I think it’s a little bit harder for him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770147\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11770147 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-800x349.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-800x349.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-160x70.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-1020x445.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-1200x523.png 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-1920x838.png 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image.png 1999w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Does your county have more young people living with a spouse or with their parents? \u003ca href=\"https://esrimedia.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Minimalist/index.html?appid=cdc36635a1c6488091e5e8ae1433d3d1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click the map for the full interactive.\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The California Dream series is a statewide media collaboration of CalMatters, KPBS, KPCC, KQED and Capital Public Radio, with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the James Irvine Foundation and the College Futures Foundation.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11768052\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219-160x44.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The living arrangement is equally common in high-cost states such as New York and Massachusetts. In New Jersey, an astonishing 46% of 18- to 34-year olds stay with at least one of their parents, according to Census Bureau data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking at where in California young adults are living with their parents explains a lot about the reasons why. Somewhat counterintuitively, expensive urban cores in places such as San Diego and San Francisco actually have relatively low rates of young adults living at home, owing to the large numbers of twenty-somethings who shack up with roommates to defray housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hotspots where stay-at-homers are most ubiquitous usually come in one of two flavors: affluent suburbs near the coast, or lower-income areas often farther inland and with a high concentration of Latino households.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Places like Mission Viejo, with a median household income of over $100,000, are a good example of that first flavor. So are expensive Southern California communities like Palos Verdes or Bay Area burbs like Cupertino and Saratoga, where more than half of young adults live at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770089\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11770089\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-160x115.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1020x734.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1200x863.png 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1.png 1832w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">CalMatters and \u003ca href=\"https://esrimedia.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Minimalist/index.html?appid=b0422b74cdb442b1bdbe5d23a9835e0c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Esri\u003c/a> analysis of American Community Survey data.

But he said, “there is a distinction, I think, and a clear line between criminalizing homelessness — which is always inappropriate and wrong — and saying that people do not have the right to engage in anti-social and illegal behavior on a consistent basis and then just be able to go on without any type of sanction.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, advocates say even if legal recourse is an option to address that behavior it should be a last resort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will not succeed at addressing problematic behavior by throwing lawyers and police at the situation,” said Minsker. “If we have people engaging in behavior that’s disruptive to the community, we recognize that there needs to be attention to that. And instead of paying for more lawyers and more police, we could be investing in social workers and treatment programs, rather than trying to banish them from one area of the city in particular.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, Sacramento City Attorney Susana Alcala Wood said the city will seek “injunctive relief” whenever criminal activity in an area becomes excessive and other enforcement has not been successful. “It’s not appropriate in every case, but it is in some. In this case, the residents and businesses along the Broadway Corridor have been subjected to ongoing criminal activity from a relatively small group of people. The suit looks to address that issue head-on and protect the safety of everyone who lives in or visits the area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alcala Wood also said the city would only file this type of lawsuit with the support of the neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for whether or not the defendants named in the suit were put in contact with social workers or treatment programs? Steinberg said he’s looking into it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our first obligation is to help people, including the people named in the lawsuit. And we should be assertive about it. At the same time, there should be standards of behavior and conduct on our streets and in our neighborhoods,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Read the full lawsuit:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[documentcloud url=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/6346285-Sac-Lawsuit.html\" responsive=true]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

It’s an expression of frustration, but it’s not going to lead to any resolution or better outcomes for the community,” said Natasha Minsker, a former ACLU lawyer and a volunteer at the Loaves and Fishes legal clinic in Sacramento. “We shouldn’t be in the business of banishing the neediest members of our community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sacramento County also came under fire from homeless advocacy groups earlier this year for \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11742013/advocates-eye-legal-options-as-homeless-are-ticketed-along-river-in-sacramento\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ticketing homeless residents\u003c/a> living along the American River Parkway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This legal action comes as the state’s new homeless commission — headed by Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg — is set to hold its first meeting on Sept. 6.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But according to Steinberg, who has a history of championing causes related to homelessness — including the 2004 \u003ca href=\"https://www.mhsoac.ca.gov/about-us/prop63mhsa/act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mental Health Services Act\u003c/a> — the lawsuit isn’t criminalizing people for being homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770140\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Darrell-Steinberg-800x528.jpg\" alt=\"Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg, pictured in 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"528\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11770140\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Darrell-Steinberg-800x528.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Darrell-Steinberg-160x106.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Darrell-Steinberg-1020x674.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Darrell-Steinberg-1200x793.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Darrell-Steinberg.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg, pictured in 2018. \u003ccite>(JOSH EDELSON/AFP/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“Homelessness is not a crime, period, ” Steinberg emphasized. But he said, “there is a distinction, I think, and a clear line between criminalizing homelessness — which is always inappropriate and wrong — and saying that people do not have the right to engage in anti-social and illegal behavior on a consistent basis and then just be able to go on without any type of sanction.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, advocates say even if legal recourse is an option to address that behavior it should be a last resort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will not succeed at addressing problematic behavior by throwing lawyers and police at the situation,” said Minsker. “If we have people engaging in behavior that’s disruptive to the community, we recognize that there needs to be attention to that. And instead of paying for more lawyers and more police, we could be investing in social workers and treatment programs, rather than trying to banish them from one area of the city in particular.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, Sacramento City Attorney Susana Alcala Wood said the city will seek “injunctive relief” whenever criminal activity in an area becomes excessive and other enforcement has not been successful. “It’s not appropriate in every case, but it is in some. In this case, the residents and businesses along the Broadway Corridor have been subjected to ongoing criminal activity from a relatively small group of people. The suit looks to address that issue head-on and protect the safety of everyone who lives in or visits the area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alcala Wood also said the city would only file this type of lawsuit with the support of the neighborhood.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for whether or not the defendants named in the suit were put in contact with social workers or treatment programs? Steinberg said he’s looking into it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our first obligation is to help people, including the people named in the lawsuit. And we should be assertive about it. At the same time, there should be standards of behavior and conduct on our streets and in our neighborhoods,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Read the full lawsuit:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
