Voters also approved Proposition 2, a separate measure that will allow the state to use a past tax on millionaires to fund housing for the mentally ill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 was placed on the ballot by the state Legislature. It will let the state sell $4 billion in bonds to finance the construction and renovation of affordable multifamily housing projects; housing construction near public transportation; down payment assistance for low- and moderate-income homebuyers; housing construction for farmworkers; and home loan assistance to veterans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[election2018result race=8742]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 2 will let the state use existing funds to issue bonds that will pay for housing homeless, mentally ill Californians. The money to pay for those bonds will come from Proposition 63, an income tax on people who make more than $1 million a year, which voters approved in 2004.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[election2018result race=8743]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 63 provides funding for county mental health services, but lawmakers decided in 2016 that $140 million a year of the money should be spent on stabilizing mentally ill people by housing them. But they decided to go back to voters with Proposition 2 after a lawsuit delayed their ability to immediately use the Proposition 63 funds for housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is, without question, a pivotal moment for mental health care in California,” Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg said in a statement about the passage of Proposition 2. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“By leveraging just a small percentage of existing mental health funding, we will be able to build enough supportive housing over the course of this program to get tens of thousands of people who are homeless and living with serious mental illness off the streets and into recovery.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11675163\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"A homeless encampment located on Florida St in the Mission District of San Francisco on Thursday, June 23, 2016.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11675163\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A homeless encampment located on Florida Street in the Mission District of San Francisco on Thursday, June 23, 2016. \u003ccite>(Brittany Hosea-Small/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>California has some of the highest housing costs in the U.S., largely driven by a lack of construction. According to the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office, an average California home costs 2½ times the national average, and rent is about 50 percent higher than in the rest of the nation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The programs paid for by Proposition 1, the housing bond, could help as many as 55,000 families, according to the LAO.

Voters also approved Proposition 2, a separate measure that will allow the state to use a past tax on millionaires to fund housing for the mentally ill.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 1 was placed on the ballot by the state Legislature. It will let the state sell $4 billion in bonds to finance the construction and renovation of affordable multifamily housing projects; housing construction near public transportation; down payment assistance for low- and moderate-income homebuyers; housing construction for farmworkers; and home loan assistance to veterans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 2 will let the state use existing funds to issue bonds that will pay for housing homeless, mentally ill Californians. The money to pay for those bonds will come from Proposition 63, an income tax on people who make more than $1 million a year, which voters approved in 2004.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 63 provides funding for county mental health services, but lawmakers decided in 2016 that $140 million a year of the money should be spent on stabilizing mentally ill people by housing them. But they decided to go back to voters with Proposition 2 after a lawsuit delayed their ability to immediately use the Proposition 63 funds for housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is, without question, a pivotal moment for mental health care in California,” Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg said in a statement about the passage of Proposition 2. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“By leveraging just a small percentage of existing mental health funding, we will be able to build enough supportive housing over the course of this program to get tens of thousands of people who are homeless and living with serious mental illness off the streets and into recovery.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11675163\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"A homeless encampment located on Florida St in the Mission District of San Francisco on Thursday, June 23, 2016.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11675163\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/RS19963_160623_Florida-St-Encampment_bhs06-qut-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A homeless encampment located on Florida Street in the Mission District of San Francisco on Thursday, June 23, 2016. \u003ccite>(Brittany Hosea-Small/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>California has some of the highest housing costs in the U.S., largely driven by a lack of construction.

Researchers found the number of gentrified neighborhoods in Los Angeles County jumped 16 percent between 1990 and 2015. San Diego County saw an 18 percent increase in gentrified neighborhoods in the same time period.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the demand for housing in the Bay Area grows, Oakland neighborhoods like this are losing low-income residents, according to research from the Urban Displacement Project at UC Berkeley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On this block where we’ve based this reporting project, Dorothy and Donna are among the few remaining longtime residents.

Only 4 percent of the residents in this neighborhood lived here before 1970.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back in 1970, homes in this neighborhood sold for about $13,800, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Even when you account for inflation, there is a massive gulf between then and now. The cost of a home then, adjusted for inflation, would be about $92,000 today. Median rent in the neighborhood was $86 a month in the 1970s, about $574 in today’s dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, homes on this block can sell for more than $1 million. A two-bed, two-bath apartment on the block rents for $3,000 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as the prices have changed, the demographics of the neighborhood have changed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11700637\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM.png\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11700637\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-800x282.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"282\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-800x282.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-160x56.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-1020x360.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-1200x423.png 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-1920x678.png 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-1180x416.png 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-960x339.png 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-240x85.png 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-375x132.png 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM-520x183.png 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/Screen-Shot-2018-10-23-at-11.38.02-AM.png 2046w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The North Oakland block’s census tract has seen rising home values and a high percentage of new residents in recent decades. \u003ccite>(SOURCE: 2016 American Community Survey)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Back in 1970, about 85 percent of the residents were black, according to U.S. Census data.

One suggestion, he posited, was withholding transportation funding to communities that don't build enough new housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I hope you can compare and contrast our proposals, our specific tangible plans, because there is a profound contrast in the two projects.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike Cox, who believes municipalities should ultimately maintain authority over local development decisions, Newsom made a case for adjusting the balance of power between state and local governments, and using tax incentives to “reward good local actions and discourage the bad.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think you also have to be a bit punitive as it relates to local government,\" he added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom argued that California's tight cap on property taxes actually gives cities a “perverse disincentive” to build more housing, a reference to Proposition 13, the landmark 1978 voter-approved measure that placed strict caps on state property taxes, making them some of the lowest in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We would like to have that debate about reallocating that tax base,” he said, adding that “everything is on the table,” including a possible re-examination of Prop 13.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cox, though, was quick to push back on the idea of more intervention from Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“All these plans don’t mean a thing if we can’t change a lot of these laws that are adding to the costs, that are driving housing prices and apartment prices through the roof,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Though other cities like Denver and Detroit are offering rental subsidies to low-income families.

But just one year ago, he was wracked with anxiety because he consistently fell short $500 each month on his bills. He was dogged by one thought: “How am I going to live tomorrow?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then came the letter from the city of Santa Monica informing the painter that he was accepted into the pilot program for a monthly subsidy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was something that came down from heaven,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wallace said single seniors like Devillandry are hurting the most.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“About half of them don’t have enough money to pay those basic expenses,” Wallace said. “And so, you don’t see people dying on the street but you do see people in dire circumstances and making do in various ways that I think none of us would consider adequate in a wealthy, civilized society like we’re in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKO8gN132EI\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wallace consulted on Santa Monica’s elderly subsidy program. He said the true test of its success will be if seniors in the pilot project stay in their homes longer than those who are not receiving help. Another indicator will be if the city saves money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Monica admitted seniors making $14,000 a year or less into the program. The city used UCLA’s Elder Index to calculate how much it costs for seniors to cover their basic expenses and has sought to raise the income of each of the participants to $22,098 annually.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Varon said Santa Monica has set aside $300,000 in general fund and sales tax money for the pilot project. She said the alternative could be even more expensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When somebody becomes homeless, their expenses become astronomically higher because they’re on the street, and they are sick and possibly we are calling paramedics for them,” Varon said. “They are ending up at the hospital because they are so sick, so how can we afford not to keep them housed?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Santa Monica’s Agle views the city’s subsidies as part of its social contract with seniors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In most of California, Social Security is barely going to pay your rent,” he said. “Are we as a state, as Californians, going to say, 'Let’s add everybody over 65 as homeless.'

FHA loans have been declining as a share of California's overall mortgage market. Still, in 2017 about 15 percent of all homes sold in California had an FHA loan, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.car.org/marketdata/surveys/ahs\">a survey\u003c/a> from the California Association of Realtors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These loans can help young families get into lower to mid-priced California homes.

When parents see their kids struggling under those pressures, of course they want to help.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And they're not just gifting down payments to their kids. They're also co-buying houses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recent \u003ca href=\"https://www.attomdata.com/news/market-trends/mortgage-origination/q1-2018-loan-origination-trends-report/\">quarterly report\u003c/a> from Irvine-based real estate data firm Attom Data Solutions found that 48 percent of houses purchased in San Jose had sales deeds that listed multiple non-married buyers (often an indication that parents are co-buying with their children). The same was true for 38 percent of homes purchased in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some parents are making \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/programs/take-two/2017/07/12/57900/socal-so-curious-who-are-the-cash-buyers-in-socal/\">all-cash purchases\u003c/a> for their kids. Family money can be involved in other ways that are harder to detect. Buyers can purchase homes with inheritances or trust fund money, which don't show up in data on FHA loans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parental help is happening in many non-FHA loans as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11684255\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11684255\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-800x659.jpg\" alt=\"Raphael Leib opens the gate to the City Terrace home he shares with his wife and two young children, July 21, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"659\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-800x659.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-160x132.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-1020x840.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-1200x989.jpg 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-1180x972.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-960x791.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-240x198.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-375x309.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2018/08/Raphael-520x428.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Raphael Leib opens the gate to the City Terrace home he shares with his wife and two young children, July 21, 2018. \u003ccite>(David Wagner/KPCC)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Labor union representative Raphael Leib used a conventional mortgage to buy a $390,000 house on the Eastside of Los Angeles three years ago with his wife, a high school French teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The couple is raising their two young children in the three-bedroom house thanks in part to about $40,000 worth of help from their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Having a gift from both our sets of parents really meant that we could find a place that our family could grow into,\" Leib said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leib has seen others also tapping into generational wealth to buy homes in Los Angeles.

"content": "\u003cp>As newly minted college students get ready to start classes next month, some will find their school’s estimates for costs are way off. If students relied on what colleges report, they’d expect to pay nearly the same amount for food and off-campus housing at \u003ca href=\"https://www2.calstate.edu/attend/paying-for-college/Pages/campus-costs-of-attendance.aspx\">Fresno State\u003c/a> as at \u003ca href=\"http://www.admission.ucla.edu/Prospect/budget.htm\">UCLA\u003c/a>, even though the two areas have dramatically different housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There doesn't seem to be an overall rhyme or reason as to how colleges set these allowances,” said Seton Hall University professor \u003ca href=\"https://www.shu.edu/profiles/robertkelchen.cfm\">Robert Kelchen\u003c/a>, who studied college budget estimates nationally. “It was happening basically everywhere, and the concern was greatest in areas with very high living costs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bad estimates can throw off not only students’ budgeting, but also their financial aid packages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any college that gets federal financial aid has to come up with a basic cost of attendance estimate, but schools have a lot of leeway in how they make that calculation. In California, the agency that oversees financial aid programs for the state, the Student Aid Commission, \u003ca href=\"https://www.csac.ca.gov/post/student-expense-budget\">provides an estimate\u003c/a> of student costs for food, housing, textbooks, and transportation. It’s a single statewide average, and many schools around the state rely on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We see colleges in some of the most expensive parts of the state using that number, and some colleges in the least expensive parts of the state,” said Debbie Cochrane, vice president of \u003ca href=\"https://ticas.org/\">The Institute for College Access and Success\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://financialaid.sfsu.edu/Welcome\">San Francisco State University\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.fullerton.edu/financialaid/costs/UGCosts.php\">Cal State Fullerton\u003c/a>, for example, list nearly identical off-campus housing and food costs. “When we looked at that we thought, ‘That doesn’t seem right,’ ” said \u003ca href=\"https://www.calstatestudents.org/\">Cal State Student Association\u003c/a> Executive Director Rob Shorette. When he checked other sources of data, like the Department of Housing and Urban Development, they told a different story about housing costs: \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/fmr/fmrs/FY2018_code/2018summary.odn\">Rents in San Francisco\u003c/a> are around $1,000 a month higher than \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/fmr/fmrs/FY2018_code/2018summary.odn\">rents in Fullerton\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overestimating costs could result in students taking out more loans than they need, Shorette says, but lowballing costs can be bad for students, too. “Underestimating these costs may put them in a predicament where they’re forced to find other ways to meet their financial needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These estimates aren’t just misleading — they also determine the maximum amount of financial aid a student can get. (Financial aid is calculated by subtracting your expected family contribution from your school’s total cost of attendance.) Most students don’t get their full cost of attendance paid for with grants, but the cost of attendance estimate also caps student loans.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'If [colleges] lowball costs, not only does that spare their own institutional aid budgets, but it also makes them look better in the eyes of students and families.'\u003ccite>Debbie Cochrane, Institute for College Access and Success\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>So if a college’s estimate is too low, Kelchen says, “you need to work a lot more in order to pay the bills. But working a lot more means that it's hard to go to college full time and it may be hard to do well in school.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even within the same city, estimates can vary: \u003ca href=\"http://www.calstatela.edu/financialaid/2018-2019-cost-attendance\">Cal State Los Angeles' estimate\u003c/a> for non-tuition costs is $19,454; \u003ca href=\"http://www.admission.ucla.edu/Prospect/budget.htm\">UCLA’s\u003c/a> is $17,802.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UC Berkeley and Berkeley City College are less than half a mile apart. But \u003ca href=\"https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.documentcloud.org/documents/4619330/Student-Cost-of-Attendance.pdf?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIWZKW64MXJ5HXBOA&Expires=1532652435&Signature=mHyoSKPbWEL9Nse74Wwni3rQL4Q%3D\">City College estimates\u003c/a> students spend about $4,800 more every school year on non-tuition costs than \u003ca href=\"https://financialaid.berkeley.edu/cost-attendance\">UC Berkeley estimates\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really unclear why UC Berkeley students would need so much less, would be spending so much less,” Cochrane says. “I mean in many cases these students are actually roommates.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UC’s estimates are based on its own \u003ca href=\"https://www.ucop.edu/institutional-research-academic-planning/services/survey-services/UCOAS.html\">student surveys\u003c/a>, done every three years. Some parts of the Berkeley City College budget appear to use the statewide estimate provided by the Student Aid Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked about the discrepancy, a UC spokesperson pointed to the fact that UC’s data are newer. The Student Aid Commission’s estimate is based on a survey last conducted more than a decade ago. And while it’s been adjusted annually for inflation, commission administrators raise concerns that the estimate is actually too low because of its age. They’re in the process of conducting a new survey.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11673311/housing-costs-more-than-tuition-are-crushing-californias-low-income-college-students\">Housing Costs — More Than Tuition — Are Crushing California's Low-Income College Students\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11673311/housing-costs-more-than-tuition-are-crushing-californias-low-income-college-students\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/SadiaKahn-1180x1006.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.apartmentlist.com/rentonomics/rental-price-data/\">Recent Apartment List data\u003c/a> put the average cost of a one-bedroom apartment in Berkeley at $2,113 a month. To live on the off-campus housing budget UC Berkeley provides, two students would have to share that apartment and wouldn’t have money left over for utilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cochrane and Kelchen agree that coming up with estimates is complicated, and it’s hard to know what’s accurate, but both see an incentive to make prices look lower than they are: For schools that provide generous grant aid, raising the price tag would mean shelling out a lot more money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they lowball costs, not only does that spare their own institutional aid budgets,” Cochrane said, “but it also makes them look better in the eyes of students and families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California legislators have been looking for fixes. They introduced at least three bills in the last couple years that took on the issue. Last year, Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed one that \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB1064\">would have required\u003c/a> the CSU to do its own surveys to come up with more accurate cost estimates.

If students relied on what colleges report, they’d expect to pay nearly the same amount for food and off-campus housing at \u003ca href=\"https://www2.calstate.edu/attend/paying-for-college/Pages/campus-costs-of-attendance.aspx\">Fresno State\u003c/a> as at \u003ca href=\"http://www.admission.ucla.edu/Prospect/budget.htm\">UCLA\u003c/a>, even though the two areas have dramatically different housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There doesn't seem to be an overall rhyme or reason as to how colleges set these allowances,” said Seton Hall University professor \u003ca href=\"https://www.shu.edu/profiles/robertkelchen.cfm\">Robert Kelchen\u003c/a>, who studied college budget estimates nationally. “It was happening basically everywhere, and the concern was greatest in areas with very high living costs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bad estimates can throw off not only students’ budgeting, but also their financial aid packages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any college that gets federal financial aid has to come up with a basic cost of attendance estimate, but schools have a lot of leeway in how they make that calculation. In California, the agency that oversees financial aid programs for the state, the Student Aid Commission, \u003ca href=\"https://www.csac.ca.gov/post/student-expense-budget\">provides an estimate\u003c/a> of student costs for food, housing, textbooks, and transportation. It’s a single statewide average, and many schools around the state rely on it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We see colleges in some of the most expensive parts of the state using that number, and some colleges in the least expensive parts of the state,” said Debbie Cochrane, vice president of \u003ca href=\"https://ticas.org/\">The Institute for College Access and Success\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

When he checked other sources of data, like the Department of Housing and Urban Development, they told a different story about housing costs: \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/fmr/fmrs/FY2018_code/2018summary.odn\">Rents in San Francisco\u003c/a> are around $1,000 a month higher than \u003ca href=\"https://www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/fmr/fmrs/FY2018_code/2018summary.odn\">rents in Fullerton\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Overestimating costs could result in students taking out more loans than they need, Shorette says, but lowballing costs can be bad for students, too. “Underestimating these costs may put them in a predicament where they’re forced to find other ways to meet their financial needs.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These estimates aren’t just misleading — they also determine the maximum amount of financial aid a student can get. (Financial aid is calculated by subtracting your expected family contribution from your school’s total cost of attendance.) Most students don’t get their full cost of attendance paid for with grants, but the cost of attendance estimate also caps student loans.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'If [colleges] lowball costs, not only does that spare their own institutional aid budgets, but it also makes them look better in the eyes of students and families.'\u003ccite>Debbie Cochrane, Institute for College Access and Success\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>So if a college’s estimate is too low, Kelchen says, “you need to work a lot more in order to pay the bills. But working a lot more means that it's hard to go to college full time and it may be hard to do well in school.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even within the same city, estimates can vary: \u003ca href=\"http://www.calstatela.edu/financialaid/2018-2019-cost-attendance\">Cal State Los Angeles' estimate\u003c/a> for non-tuition costs is $19,454; \u003ca href=\"http://www.admission.ucla.edu/Prospect/budget.htm\">UCLA’s\u003c/a> is $17,802.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UC Berkeley and Berkeley City College are less than half a mile apart. But \u003ca href=\"https://s3.amazonaws.com/s3.documentcloud.org/documents/4619330/Student-Cost-of-Attendance.pdf?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAIWZKW64MXJ5HXBOA&Expires=1532652435&Signature=mHyoSKPbWEL9Nse74Wwni3rQL4Q%3D\">City College estimates\u003c/a> students spend about $4,800 more every school year on non-tuition costs than \u003ca href=\"https://financialaid.berkeley.edu/cost-attendance\">UC Berkeley estimates\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really unclear why UC Berkeley students would need so much less, would be spending so much less,” Cochrane says. “I mean in many cases these students are actually roommates.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>UC’s estimates are based on its own \u003ca href=\"https://www.ucop.edu/institutional-research-academic-planning/services/survey-services/UCOAS.html\">student surveys\u003c/a>, done every three years. Some parts of the Berkeley City College budget appear to use the statewide estimate provided by the Student Aid Commission.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked about the discrepancy, a UC spokesperson pointed to the fact that UC’s data are newer. The Student Aid Commission’s estimate is based on a survey last conducted more than a decade ago. And while it’s been adjusted annually for inflation, commission administrators raise concerns that the estimate is actually too low because of its age. They’re in the process of conducting a new survey.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11673311/housing-costs-more-than-tuition-are-crushing-californias-low-income-college-students\">Housing Costs — More Than Tuition — Are Crushing California's Low-Income College Students\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11673311/housing-costs-more-than-tuition-are-crushing-californias-low-income-college-students\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/SadiaKahn-1180x1006.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.apartmentlist.com/rentonomics/rental-price-data/\">Recent Apartment List data\u003c/a> put the average cost of a one-bedroom apartment in Berkeley at $2,113 a month. To live on the off-campus housing budget UC Berkeley provides, two students would have to share that apartment and wouldn’t have money left over for utilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cochrane and Kelchen agree that coming up with estimates is complicated, and it’s hard to know what’s accurate, but both see an incentive to make prices look lower than they are: For schools that provide generous grant aid, raising the price tag would mean shelling out a lot more money.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If they lowball costs, not only does that spare their own institutional aid budgets,” Cochrane said, “but it also makes them look better in the eyes of students and families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California legislators have been looking for fixes. They introduced at least three bills in the last couple years that took on the issue. Last year, Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed one that \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB1064\">would have required\u003c/a> the CSU to do its own surveys to come up with more accurate cost estimates.

She held out hope that lawmakers in the state capitol would be able to avoid an all-or-nothing ballot battle, and instead reform the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now that repeal is on the ballot, Wicks is not taking a position on the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We'll see what the voters decide in November,\" she said in response to questions about her stance on Proposition 10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If I get this job and I go to Sacramento I will work to ensure that our renters in this district have the protections they need to be supported,\" Wicks added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an election in which Democrats are hoping to turn out voters to flip Congressional seats and keep the statehouse blue, rent control could be a magnet to get liberals to the polls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\"There's a lot of interest from activists in the party to see Proposition 10 pass,\" said David Campos, chair of the San Francisco Democratic Party. \"That energy will be used to help Gavin Newsom get elected governor, it will be used to make sure that we take back the House of Representatives.\" \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Proposition 10 campaign will need to solidify more Democratic support over the coming months, as they face a \"No on 10\" campaign that will likely have more funding than supporters of the measure \u003cem>and\u003c/em> the unified backing of state Republicans, who generally oppose rent control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \"Yes\" campaign could try to rally Democrats in opposition to its biggest financial opponent, Orange County developer Michael Hayde, who has already spent $3.7 million against Prop. 10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hayde is a longtime Republican donor who gave $12,500 to Donald Trump in the 2016 election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement after the party's vote to endorse Proposition 10, party chair Eric Bauman chose to focus on Hayde, and not any policy divisions within the Democratic ranks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The questions surrounding contributions from Trump supporter Michael K. Hayde to No on 10 clearly influenced the Democratic Party’s endorsement for Prop. 10,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It remains to be seen if Hayde's involvement, as well as the apparent disunity in the \"No\" campaign (two different groups of developers and realtors have formed separate committees to oppose Proposition 10) will provide a boost to the supporters of the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian Brokaw said the \"Yes on 10\" campaign, led by the L.A.-based AIDS Healthcare Foundation, will have to focus its energy on unifying as many Democrats as possible behind Prop 10, given the historical success of \"No\" campaigns in general.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would be surprised if ultimately this turns into a debate over who is funding each side,\" he added.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
