Opinion: San Diego created homelessness problem in East Village by displacing affordable housing [Opinion]
Downtown San Diego condo owners grow weary as homeless incidents escalate. ‘You name it, I’ve seen it.’
” : Unlike the wildlife that retreats to nearby canyons, or is simply razed over when overdevelopment takes hold of our beautiful landscape, the residents of East Village have been pushed to the sidewalks. We are seeing the result of a very intentional campaign to force the cost of living to a price too high for most residents.
There was a thriving community whose members resided in East Village for its affordable rent, but they have been replaced by looming skyscrapers that entice a wealthier class with hot tubs, overpriced food and diluted “culture.”For these new residents to complain of homelessness without seeing themselves as a part of the problem shows an amazing lack of self-awareness and humanity.
