The annual homeless count in Los Angeles reported a drop of 1,432 recreational vehicles in the Antelope Valley, but locals and officials dispute the accuracy, saying the number of vehicles has not decreased. The discrepancy is likely due to counting errors, including a possible digital glitch. The issue is compounded by a lack of addresses and trash services, leading to litter in desert areas.

An estimated 34,000 homeless people in California live in vehicles, half of them in motorhomes, converted buses, or travel trailers. Since January 2025, a new law in Los Angeles and Alameda counties allows authorities to quickly demolish oversize vehicles worth up to $4,000 if the owner cannot move them without a tow truck. Advocates and researchers say authorities are systematically displacing RV dwellers without providing alternative housing, with wait times for case workers reaching two to three months.

The LA County Board of Supervisors preliminarily approved expanding no-parking zones for oversized vehicles, including RVs, on unincorporated roads. Final vote is expected next week.
