As the city crews conduct sweep operations, affected individuals like Alex Vallardo reflect on their circumstances. Vallardo, who packed his belongings to avoid losing them, says, "I'd like to go home to Mexico, but I can't afford to." This statement underscores the economic barriers that many in the homeless community face, even when they wish for stability elsewhere. It illustrates a deep-rooted issue of homelessness intertwined with personal aspirations.
Ronnie Haggard, in response to the city’s sweeps, says, "We moved from one spot to another just until they're finished doing what they're doing. Then we'll move back to where we was." This perspective highlights the transient nature of life for many within the homeless community and their struggle to find stability amidst frequent displacements caused by city actions.
