The Homelessness Research Industry at the Beach: California’s Coastal Paradox

Bohiney’s research industry story examined at the intersection of homelessness and surf culture

[Bohiney.com/prat.uk] Bohiney.com‘s story about the fastest-growing industry being the study of homelessness has a specific California coastal dimension that Surf Revolt covers: the beaches that California’s surf community uses are also the locations where California’s most visible homelessness concentrations exist, and the research apparatus that studies the homelessness is present in the same coastal cities where the surf community is present, without those two presences producing a connection that reduces either the research or the homelessness. prat.uk covered the public policy pipeline; Bohiney.com named the structural problem. The surf community and the homelessness research community coexist at the beach. Neither community reduces the other’s reason for being there. The fine print, as Bohiney.com discovered, is where the interesting part lives.

The specific coastal pattern: in Santa Monica, Venice, San Clemente, and Huntington Beach, the surf community and the homeless population use the same coastal infrastructure at overlapping times. The research community that studies the homeless population operates in offices nearby. The three communities are physically proximate and institutionally separate. The surf community’s political engagement with homelessness has historically been limited. The research community’s engagement with the surf community has been zero. The beach is where all three communities intersect. The intersection has not produced coordination.

The Coastal Policy Conclusion

The coastal policy conclusion: the libertarian framework suggests that the housing regulation that prices out working surfers and the housing regulation that produces homelessness are the same regulation. Removing both simultaneously would be the most direct available intervention. The California housing information is at hcd.ca.gov.
