SPECIAL THANKS
City Net thanks the city of Redondo Beach
and the Redondo Beach Police Department
for their help conducting this census and for
their tireless efforts to support and empower
homeless neighbors in the city. Additionally,
we thank the dozens of homeless individuals
who voluntarily agreed to participate in the
census. Our hope is that this data will prove
to be useful in connecting these
homeless neighbors to resources including
shelter and housing.

PURPOSE
OVERVIEW
City Net was contracted by
the city of Redondo Beach in
2021, 2022 and 2023 to
organize and implement
homeless censuses to:
1. Identify a baseline number
of individuals living without
housing against which to
measure all homelessness
prevention and intervention
efforts.
2. Determine the
demographic, asset, and
other special characteristics
of individuals without
housing to better inform
resource allocation.
The first unsheltered census conducted by City Net
took place on the morning of January 26 and the
evening of February 2, 2021. The second census took
place on the morning of March 29 and the evening of
March 31, 2022. The third and current census took place on the morning of April 18, and the evening of April 20, 2023.
These City Net censuses are distinct but
complementary projects from the HUD-mandated,
county-wide Point-in-Time Count. These censuses
allow for a city-specific focus with more time, staff
resources, and local questions than is generally
possible within the framework of the Point-in-Time
Count.
ABOUT THE CENSUS
PAGE 04 REDONDO BEACH 2023 CENSUS COMPARISON REPORT
METHODOLOGY
During all three censuses, multiple teams were deployed with a Redondo Beach Police Department Officer. Each Officer was paired with at least one City Net surveyor.
Each surveyor’s area was indicated on assigned maps and mapped ahead of time in partnership with city staff and law enforcement. Specific locations where homeless individuals were known to gather or sleep were highlighted so that these areas could be prioritized during the census. Each location was visited at least once per census day and at different times to account for the movement of homeless individuals.
Teams were deployed from the Redondo Beach Police Station twice during the census week. Homeless individuals who did not wish to answer the survey questions were simply counted. Responses from participants, including timestamps and geolocations, were captured electronically through a secure GIS survey application.
Duplicates were removed after the completion of the census by comparing names and age ranges. Because Comparison Reports must correlate data over multiple years, new category names may arise to allow for direct comparisons.
The terms “disability” and “addiction” were not defined in the survey, so the data in these categories do not necessarily represent diagnosable conditions, but only respondents’ self-perceptions of the condition. Also, the only way to identify duplicates in the census was to compare the names and ages of those who chose to complete the survey. Because the census occurred over multiple days, unsheltered individuals who chose not to complete the survey may have been counted more than once, and artificial inflation of the count, therefore, cannot be ruled out. The margin of error for the Redondo Beach 2023 Census dataset ranges between 0.00% and 4.41%.
Some percentage totals in this report may appear to be above or below 100.0% due to rounding.

Overall Decrease in Homelessness. Redondo Beach’s unsheltered homeless count has decreased from 92 in 2021 to 71 in 2023, a total decrease of 23%*. This decrease has been sustained in recent years, as the city's intervention efforts, including investments in a local emergency shelter, have yielded lasting results in a time when most communities are experiencing increases in unsheltered homelessness.
Migratory Population. An inherent reality of homelessness is its hidden and transitory nature‒both as people move in and out of the city and in and out of housing. This can be seen in the diagram on Page 26. Of those who provided sufficient name and date of birth information to belong to a comparable dataset, 29 were unique to the 2023 census. Only one individual appeared in all three census counts (2021, 2022, & 2023), a very small number which is consistent with City Net’s findings in other cities. Intervention efforts to connect homeless neighbors to shelter and housing are critical, and have been effective in Redondo Beach, but other community members continue to fall into homelessness.
Increase in Receptivity to Shelter and Resources. In 2023, 64% of respondents were interested in case management, while 40% of respondents were interested in going to a shelter, a notable increase from 33% in 2022. This jump suggests that homeless neighbors are eager to connect to services and trust is growing in how they perceive the services on offer.
Increased Connections to Benefits and Income. The data exhibits marked increase in connections to financial assistance, healthcare and CalFresh, indicating the success of initiatives to link homeless neighbors to these vital services and a willingness to embrace them. From 2021 to 2023, those reporting income increased from 46% to 51%, those having healthcare insurance increased from 56% to 72%, and those enrolled in CalFresh increased from 31% to 47%. We recommend further exploring this progress to replicate these successful steps towards connecting homeless neighbors with these crucial resources and enhancing their support networks over time.
Chronicity. 45% of homeless individuals surveyed in the 2023 census are chronically homeless. It is crucial to explore implementing new and adapting existing services to address the unique realities and challenges of those experiencing homelessness in the city today.
