Housing and Homelessness

We David_Camposspend the hour on housing and homelessness. First, the economics: why housing doesn’t follow the same supply and demand dynamics as other products. Then, the crisis: the push in San Francisco to get a state of emergency declaration to deal with homelessness.

Guests:

  • Richard Walker, professor of geography emeritus at UC Berkeley – his most recent book is The Atlas of California.
  • David Campos, Supervisor representing San Francisco’s District 9, which includes the Mission District
  • Sam Dodge,  director of the San Francisco Mayor’s Office of Housing, Opportunity, Partnerships & Engagement, or HOPE-SF
  • Tim Redmond, editor of 48hills.org
