But it’s also a place where on any given night, more than 150,000 people live in tents and cars, RVs and shelters. So many wild extremes. But what can we do about it? That’s the question a new KQED podcast is tackling.

This week on The California Report Magazine, we’ll hear the first episode, and learn \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">about the roots of California’s homeless crisis, as well as \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">recent efforts to house people struggling with homelessness in hotels.

But it’s also a place where on any given night, more than 150,000 people live in tents and cars, RVs and shelters. So many wild extremes. But what can we do about it? That’s the question a new KQED podcast is tackling.

The episode looks at how communities have used local development rules to keep out low-income residents and people of color.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the Supreme Court outlawed city rules that enforced racial segregation by prohibiting Black people from buying homes in white neighborhoods, cities simply adopted a new tool with a new name: zoning. Instead of discriminating based on race, cities passed zoning laws that discriminated based on class and architecture. The zones, or districts, limited the types of buildings that were allowed, such as single-family homes or factories, apartments or offices, shops or warehouses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it all started right here in the Bay Area. Berkeley was one of the first cities to use what is now known as single-family zoning, which bars anything other than single-family homes from being built in certain neighborhoods.
