The Times compiled data from the Los Angeles Housing and Community Investment Department, which oversees Proposition HHH projects. Homeless population estimates are from the Los Angeles Housing Services Authority’s 2019 count. According to HHH rules, the majority of the funds should be used to build permanent supportive housing units for homeless people. This analysis does not include projects funded by the mayor's innovation challenge, which involves $120 million set aside from the $1.2 billion HHH funds.
