He’s late with his payment, again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Jan gets ready for work — driving an Uber in San Francisco for the next 12 hours — his 4-year-old daughter, Shukula, barricades the front door of their two-bedroom apartment in Antioch, a far-flung Bay Area suburb east of Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I need to work. Need to make some money,” Jan, 34, playfully tells his daughter. “No, you cannot,” replies Shukula, an impish smile spreading across her face.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look buddy,” says Jan. “I got to go, get some money, and buy you a dress.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That satisfies Shukula. She and the rest of Jan’s family — 9-year-old Sameera, 5-year old Mirwais and 9-month-old Wais, carried by his mother — follow Jan out to his car.

The cost of living has increased so much in recent years that refugee resettlement agencies working in California are rethinking their strategies for relocating clients — and whether the state is a good fit for some refugees in the first place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I heard a lot about California out there in Afghanistan,” says Jan, who embedded with American soldiers from the Bay Area and other parts of the state. “They were saying California is nice.

He drives an Uber more than 70 hours a week to make ends meet. \u003ccite>(Robbie Short/CALmatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>California has long been a landing spot for refugees like Jan. Waves of Vietnamese, Iranian, Central American and other immigrants have resettled here over the past few decades, escaping persecution and turmoil in their home countries. More than \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdss.ca.gov/Portals/9/Refugee/Arrivals/arrivals_by_county_and_year_since_1975.pdf?ver=2018-05-23-154958-877\">700,000 refugees\u003c/a> have come to California since the mid-1970s, including more than 30,000 in the last five years, according to state statistics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That history is partly why so many Californians pride themselves on their welcoming attitude toward newcomers displaced from their native countries. While refugee arrivals dipped dramatically last year under new Trump administration policies, the state’s progressive political leadership has \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/politics/essential/la-pol-ca-essential-politics-updates-california-state-senate-passes-1485824122-htmlstory.html\">repeatedly branded\u003c/a> California as the refugee-friendly antidote to Trump, challenging the president’s actions to reduce refugee admissions and passing a “California Welcomes Refugees” legislative package last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Californians’ welcoming attitude only goes so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is a really hard place to come, just because of the cost of living, especially the cost of housing,\" says Avi Rose, executive director of Jewish Family and Community Services East Bay, the nonprofit that assisted Jan.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'If I [had to ] do it over, I wouldn’t come to California.'\u003ccite>Khisrow Jan\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Most refugee resettlement agencies no longer place families in San Francisco because of the city’s high housing costs. In San Diego, long a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/san-diego-welcomes-refugees-california-county/\">leading destination for refugees\u003c/a>, one resettlement agency was \u003ca href=\"http://www.kpbs.org/news/2018/feb/23/federal-monitors-warned-san-diego-refugee-nonprofi/\">accused\u003c/a> of placing families in apartments that did not have enough sleeping space and advising refugees to lie to landlords about the number of people in their family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Jewish Family and Community Services East Bay resettled 183 refugees in the Bay Area, the vast majority coming from Afghanistan. Rose says his agency is moving more and more of those clients inland, away from pricier coastal cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That may mean cheaper rents, but it also means refugees may be farther from communities that share their language and culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s particularly a problem with women, because the women are home usually with the kids,” says Rose. “They’re more likely to be isolated, less likely to be picking up English. It’s hard anyway, but it’s harder if you’re isolated geographically.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s part of the reason Jan stays in the Bay Area, despite the high price tag. His brother lives close by, and there are other Afghani families in his apartment complex. That makes things easier on his wife, who doesn’t speak English very well and does not have a driver’s license.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I [had to ] do it over, I wouldn’t come to California,” says Jan. “Over here, it’s too much rent. But I’m used to it now, I can’t move.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Urinating in a Bottle to Save Money\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>It’s the Fourth of July, and Jan is dressed for the occasion. He has a polo shirt with a small American flag embroidered on the chest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The patriotism of the vehicle he drives for Uber is less subtle. It has a bald eagle decal on the top of the windshield. Another decal with the motto of one of the military units Jan worked with in Afghanistan is tacked on the back.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11670533/is-californias-expensive-housing-scaring-away-job-seekers\">Is California's Expensive Housing Scaring Away Job Seekers?\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11670533/is-californias-expensive-housing-scaring-away-job-seekers\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/05/RecruiteratDesk-1180x835.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Beneath his car seat is a large plastic bottle. Jan doesn’t have much time for bathroom breaks during his Uber rides. It’s especially difficult to find a free restroom in San Francisco, where restaurants and gas stations typically allow access only to paying customers because of the city’s large homeless population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So Jan will often pee in the bottle, typically in the back seat of his car, which has tinted windows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though he worked with American troops and says he saw live combat, Jan is not eligible for veterans’ benefits. Neither are any of the other roughly 10,000 holders of “special immigrant visas” in California, a program designed for Iraqis and Afghanis who worked with the U.S. military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is frequently not safe for natives who worked with American forces to remain in their home country.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Little Support From Government, and Nothing Coming Anytime Soon\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Special immigrant visa-holders and other refugees don’t get much in the way of government support. The federal government provides a little more than $1,000 in one-time cash assistance for each refugee family member, regardless of where that family is resettling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So an Afghani family resettling in California gets the same amount per person as another family that relocates in Idaho or Texas, which have significantly cheaper costs of living. That cash assistance is supposed to pay for a security deposit and three months of rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Refugees are also eligible for safety net programs like food stamps, welfare and free health insurance for the poor.

Waves of Vietnamese, Iranian, Central American and other immigrants have resettled here over the past few decades, escaping persecution and turmoil in their home countries. More than \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdss.ca.gov/Portals/9/Refugee/Arrivals/arrivals_by_county_and_year_since_1975.pdf?ver=2018-05-23-154958-877\">700,000 refugees\u003c/a> have come to California since the mid-1970s, including more than 30,000 in the last five years, according to state statistics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That history is partly why so many Californians pride themselves on their welcoming attitude toward newcomers displaced from their native countries. While refugee arrivals dipped dramatically last year under new Trump administration policies, the state’s progressive political leadership has \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/politics/essential/la-pol-ca-essential-politics-updates-california-state-senate-passes-1485824122-htmlstory.html\">repeatedly branded\u003c/a> California as the refugee-friendly antidote to Trump, challenging the president’s actions to reduce refugee admissions and passing a “California Welcomes Refugees” legislative package last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Californians’ welcoming attitude only goes so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is a really hard place to come, just because of the cost of living, especially the cost of housing,\" says Avi Rose, executive director of Jewish Family and Community Services East Bay, the nonprofit that assisted Jan.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'If I [had to ] do it over, I wouldn’t come to California.'\u003ccite>Khisrow Jan\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Most refugee resettlement agencies no longer place families in San Francisco because of the city’s high housing costs. In San Diego, long a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/san-diego-welcomes-refugees-california-county/\">leading destination for refugees\u003c/a>, one resettlement agency was \u003ca href=\"http://www.kpbs.org/news/2018/feb/23/federal-monitors-warned-san-diego-refugee-nonprofi/\">accused\u003c/a> of placing families in apartments that did not have enough sleeping space and advising refugees to lie to landlords about the number of people in their family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last year, Jewish Family and Community Services East Bay resettled 183 refugees in the Bay Area, the vast majority coming from Afghanistan. Rose says his agency is moving more and more of those clients inland, away from pricier coastal cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That may mean cheaper rents, but it also means refugees may be farther from communities that share their language and culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s particularly a problem with women, because the women are home usually with the kids,” says Rose. “They’re more likely to be isolated, less likely to be picking up English. It’s hard anyway, but it’s harder if you’re isolated geographically.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s part of the reason Jan stays in the Bay Area, despite the high price tag. His brother lives close by, and there are other Afghani families in his apartment complex. That makes things easier on his wife, who doesn’t speak English very well and does not have a driver’s license.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I [had to ] do it over, I wouldn’t come to California,” says Jan. “Over here, it’s too much rent.

He has a polo shirt with a small American flag embroidered on the chest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The patriotism of the vehicle he drives for Uber is less subtle. It has a bald eagle decal on the top of the windshield.

It’s especially difficult to find a free restroom in San Francisco, where restaurants and gas stations typically allow access only to paying customers because of the city’s large homeless population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So Jan will often pee in the bottle, typically in the back seat of his car, which has tinted windows.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though he worked with American troops and says he saw live combat, Jan is not eligible for veterans’ benefits. Neither are any of the other roughly 10,000 holders of “special immigrant visas” in California, a program designed for Iraqis and Afghanis who worked with the U.S. military.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is frequently not safe for natives who worked with American forces to remain in their home country.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Little Support From Government, and Nothing Coming Anytime Soon\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Special immigrant visa-holders and other refugees don’t get much in the way of government support. The federal government provides a little more than $1,000 in one-time cash assistance for each refugee family member, regardless of where that family is resettling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So an Afghani family resettling in California gets the same amount per person as another family that relocates in Idaho or Texas, which have significantly cheaper costs of living.

"content": "\u003cp>By all accounts, people in eastern Contra Costa County love the brand-new eBART line from Pittsburg-Bay Point to Antioch.
