People in this city are starving for housing.

It's middle, low, and extremely low income housing.

I live in Echo Park and I'm always worried about my landlord kicking me out

because he could get so much more rent.

As a matter of fact, I walked up to the Starbucks and I told the guy I said,

where you're

standing right now was my patio.

We don't need like three, four coffee shops on one street.

You know, I go in and there's like vintage shops and there's like new bars on the street.

I love this city.

I want to see the makeup of this city remain what it is, you know?

I don't want to be moved along just because I'm a different class of person.

I was one of the first people in my community to own a house, and it was initially something

that was someone embarrassed about.

I feel like we could represent that invader, that gentrifying couple.

Have you seen your property value go up?

I just did a re-buy. Oh, yeah. It jumped up a lot. Significantly, yes.

The Hispanic community is decimated here. They can't even rent here. Where are they renting? Where are they going?

I'm sitting at a backyard in Los Angeles's Echo Park neighborhood.
