Meet the street walkers of Skid Row, learn their objectives and situation.

"Skid Row is a neighborhood in Downtown Los Angeles.[1] The area is officially known as Central City East.[2]

Skid Row contains one of the largest stable populations (about 9,200–15,000) of homeless people in the United States[3][4] and has been known for its condensed homeless population since at least the 1930s. Its long history of police raids, targeted city initiatives, and homelessness advocacy make it one of the most notable districts in Los Angeles.[5]

Covering fifty city blocks immediately east of downtown Los Angeles, Skid Row is bordered by Third Street to the north, Seventh Street to the south, Alameda Street to the east, and Main Street to the west. "
