Google Trends show declining DTLA popularity statistics

REAL ESTATE NEWS | Blog Video

According to Google Trends statistics, interest in Downtown Los Angeles took a precipitous dive in February of 2020. The L.A. Loft Blog has been reporting on the sad trend of California exodus, and the recent flight of the middle class from DTLA as politicians errantly promote the rights of the wealthy and the poor over the rights of the middle class. Hastened by the virus panic and mass hysteria of 2020, the unfortunate results can be witnessed as litter, illegal dumping, barricading of sidewalks, surge in petty crimes and skyrocketing violent crime.

How did we get here? By the turn of the 20th century, Downtown Los Angeles was booming. By 1980, Downtown was blighted and lacking in law enforcement. The hookers and drug dealers were firmly in control. The starving artists enjoyed the cheap rent of the crudely converted warehouse lofts. By 2010, Downtown was getting cleaned up, experiencing a renaissance, installing many billions of dollars of infrastructure, housing, social services, retail, entertainment and new law enforcement. As Downtown grew and prospered, we expected the homeless and crime issues to continue to diminish. By 2017, they were doing the opposite.

Safe, clean sidewalks are a staple and mainstay of the poor and middle class. Neighborhoods deteriorate rapidly when we fail to allow women and children to safely walk to school, shopping and public transportation. Downtown Los Angeles is particularly reliant on usable sidewalks, but the city council and LAPD have been increasingly denying the public the right to use the sidewalks. The homeless and disabled are particularly affected by the blocking of sidewalks, as they are mowed down in the streets by hit and run drivers. Law, courts, politicians and police are ultimately under the control fo the public.

It is up to local citizens to demand proper care and shelter for those in need, along with demanding safe, clean sidewalks and streets for the women, children, disabled and others who rely on them.

The extreme misallocation of law enforcement and misuse of other resources results in overall decline, blight, lawlessness, disorder and devastating danger in Downtown L.A. | MORE
