Oakland and the Bay Area Families Are in a Housing Crisis​

California has been in an incessant housing crisis with recent data showing signs of reaching a state of emergency. Of the 13,476 homes facing foreclosure in California, 1,997 of these families are in the Bay Area. Oakland is home to 233 of these families – with 94% of these households consisting of multiple children under the age of 17.
