SOME OF CALIFORNIA’S “CHEAPEST” CITIES HAVE SEEN THE BIGGEST RENT HIKES
Ben Christopher CalMatters
Inlandcities including Bakersfield, Fresno, Visalia and Riverside — once cheaper options than pricey places such as the Bay Area — are no longer refuges from California’s housing affordability crisis.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, the typical asking rent in these former bastions of relative affordability have exploded by as much as 40%, according to data from the real-estate listings company Zillow.
California’s inland rent spike is yet another lasting effect of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Beginning in 2020, California’s dense metropolitan coast saw an outflux of people, as educated white-collar workers, suddenly untethered from the office, packed their bags in search of cheaper and more socially distanced modes of living.
For many smaller California towns, the surge of new residents competing for housing has placed new financial pressures on lower-income residents, upended local housing markets and, in some cases, shifted the politics around housing and affordability.
In Santa Maria, just an hour up the 101 from Santa Barbara, the last three years have been a “perfect storm” for renters, said Victor Honma, who oversees housing vouchers across the region for the Housing Authority of the County of Santa Barbara.
The town was awash in suburb-seeking homebuyers from Los Angeles, the Bay Area and nearby Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo. The suddenly hot housing market persuaded many longtime local property owners to sell their rentals to the wave of new homebuyers, reducing the rental stock further. And though Santa Maria had always had a “healthy supply of inventory,” said Honma, the available homes ran on the large side, leaving few one-bedroom units to go around for many suddenly desperate renters.
These trends were in the works prior to 2020, but “the pandemic was a stimulus,” he said. It’s the same story in Bakersfield, where rents have jumped 39% since March 2020, as priced out Angelenos migrated north of the Grapevine, said Stephen Pelz, executive director of the housing authority in Kern County. Since then rising interest rates have cooled the national housing market. But Pelz said the higher cost of borrowing has only added to the woes of Kern County renters: Fewer people purchasing homes has meant more competition for the area’s remaining rental units.
An inevitable consequence
Jeff Tucker, an economist at Zillow, said the inland rental crunch is the inexorable result of California’s overall housing shortage, as the affordability crisis along the coast ripples outward. Cities in the Central Valley used to enjoy a healthy “affordability advantage” over coastal urban areas, he said. But that advantage has begun to shrink over the last three years.
“People have been moving towards that more affordable option when they don’t have anywhere else in California that they can afford,” said Tucker.
According to Zillow’s seasonally adjusted “observed rent index” — a kind of gussied-up average that strips out exceptionally pricey or cheap outliers in a given market — the typi-
cal rent in the Fresno metropolitan used to be 54% cheaper than that in San Francisco. As of June 2023, that discount dropped to 40%.
“People have been moving towards that more affordable option when they don’t have anywhere else in California that they can afford.”
-JEFF TUCKER, ECONOMIST AT ZILLOW
Further south in Bakersfield, where renters used to pay roughly half of L.A. area tenants, on average, the difference has narrowed to 40%.
In part, that’s just a function of arithmetic. In both the Bakersfield and the Los Angeles metro areas, the typical rent increased by a little more than $500 since the beginning of the pandemic. Because Kern County rents were much lower to begin with, $500 represents a larger percentage hike.
But for the average Bakersfield area resident, that $500 rent hike pinches a lot harder: The average income in Kern County is roughly $25,000, according to the most recent Census data. In L.A. County, the average is $38,000.
Some modest relief could be on the way.
The cities of Bakersfield, Visalia and Fresno have all permitted roughly 15% more units in 2021 and 2022 than they did in the two years before the pandemic, according to data collected by the state Housing and Community Development Department.
The city of Santa Maria has permitted 150% more. The bulk of the new or incoming units around town are accessory dwelling units — backyard cottages and annexes. For a city short on lower-cost single bedroom places to live, the new crop of ADUs are “really filling that gap,” said Honma.
Pro-renter advocates unsuccessful
While building more places for people to live is one part of the battle, others have tried to soften the impact on rents of existing housing stock.
Earlier this year, tenant rights and anti-poverty advocates mounted a campaign to push the city of Fresno to adopt a rent control ordinance. For a city whose most notable politico, Democratic U.S. Rep. Jim Costa, lent his name to a state law that restricts local governments for enacting or expanding rent control laws, it was a symbolic push.
Further south, activists in Delano were competing to see which town would be the first in the Central Valley to enact a permanent cap on rent hikes.
Neither campaign was successful. Fresno’s city council declined to include a rent stabilization program in its budget for this fiscal year and elected leaders in Delano agreed only to study the issue.
In Sacramento, many of these same advocacy organizations have been pushing a bill by state Sen. María Elena Durazo that would have, among other things, lowered a statewide cap on annual rent increases from 10% to a mere 5%. But that provision was stripped out, leaving only new rules that make it harder for landlords to evict tenants without cause.

ALGUNAS DE LAS CIUDADES ‘MÁS BARATAS’ PARA VIVIR EN CALIFORNIA
HAN EXPERIMENTADO LOS MAYORES AUMENTOS EN EL PRECIO DE ALQUILER
La falta de suficientes lugares para que todos vivan ha enviado los precios de alquiler que se experimentan en ciudades costeras hasta el interior del estado, eliminando grandes franjas de unidades de alquiler que antes eran más baratas.
Ben Christopher CalMatters
Lasciudades del interior, incluidas Bakersfield, Fresno, Visalia y Riverside, que alguna vez fueron opciones más baratas que lugares costosos como el Área de la Bahía, ya no son refugios de la crisis de asequibilidad de viviendas de California.
Desde el comienzo de la pandemia, el alquiler típico solicitado en estos antiguos bastiones de asequibilidad relativa se ha disparado hasta en un 40%, según datos de la empresa de listados de bienes raíces Zillow.
El aumento de las rentas en el interior de California es otro efecto duradero de la pandemia de COVID-19.
A partir de 2020, la densa costa metropolitana de California experimentó una afluencia de personas, ya que los trabajadores administrativos educados, repentinamente liberados de la oficina, empacaron sus maletas en busca de modos de vida más baratos y para estar socialmente distanciados.
Para muchas ciudades más pequeñas de California, la oleada de nuevos residentes que compiten por la vivienda ha ejercido nuevas presiones financieras sobre los residentes de bajos ingresos, ha alterado los mercados inmobiliarios locales y, en algunos casos, ha cambiado la política en torno a la vivienda y la asequibilidad.
En Santa María, a solo una hora de Santa Bárbara por la Autopista 101, los últimos tres años han sido una “tormenta perfecta” para los inquilinos, dijo Victor Honma, quien supervisa los vales de vivienda en toda la región para la Autoridad de Vivienda del Condado de Santa Bárbara.
La ciudad estaba inundada de compradores de vivienda que buscaban suburbios de Los Ángeles, el Área de la Bahía y las cercanías de Santa Bár-
bara y San Luis Obispo. El mercado inmobiliario repentinamente activo persuadió a muchos propietarios locales a vender sus alquileres ante la ola de nuevos compradores de viviendas, reduciendo aún más el inventario de alquiler. Y aunque Santa María siempre había tenido un “buen suministro de inventario”, dijo Honma, las casas disponibles eran grandes, dejando pocas unidades de un dormitorio para muchos inquilinos repentinamente desesperados.
Estas tendencias estaban en proceso antes de 2020, pero “la pandemia fue un estímulo”, dijo.
Es la misma historia en Bakersfield, donde los alquileres han aumentado un 39% desde marzo de 2020, ya que los angelinos migraron al norte de Grapevine, dijo Stephen Pelz, director ejecutivo de la autoridad de vivienda en el condado de Kern.
Desde entonces, el aumento de las tasas de interés ha enfriado el mercado inmobiliario nacional. Pero Pelz dijo que el mayor costo de los préstamos solo se ha sumado a los problemas de los inquilinos del condado de Kern: Menos personas comprando casas ha significado más competencia por las unidades de alquiler restantes del área.
Una consecuencia inevitable
Jeff Tucker, economista de Zillow, dijo que la escasez de alquileres en el interior es el resultado inexorable de la escasez general de viviendas en California, a medida que la crisis de asequibilidad a lo largo de la costa se extiende hacia el exterior. Las ciudades del Valle Central solían disfrutar de una saludable “ventaja de asequibilidad” sobre las áreas urbanas costeras, dijo. Pero esa ventaja ha comenzado a reducirse en los últimos tres años.
“La gente se ha movido hacia esa opción más económica cuando no tienen ningún otro lugar en California que puedan pagar”, dijo Tucker.
De acuerdo con el “índice de alquiler observado” ajustado estacionalmente de Zillow, una especie de
promedio exagerado que elimina los valores atípicos excepcionalmente caros o baratos en un mercado determinado, el alquiler típico en el área metropolitana de Fresno solía ser un 54% más barato que en San Francisco. A partir de junio de 2023, ese descuento se redujo al 40%.
“La gente se ha movido hacia esa opción más económica cuando no tienen ningún otro lugar en California que puedan pagar”.
-JEFF TUCKER, ECONOMISTA DE ZILLOW
Más al sur, en Bakersfield, donde los inquilinos solían pagar aproximadamente la mitad de los inquilinos del área de Los Ángeles, en promedio, la diferencia se ha reducido al 40%.
En parte, eso es solo una función de la aritmética. Tanto en el área metropoli-
tana de Bakersfield como en Los Ángeles, la renta típica aumentó un poco más de $500 desde el comienzo de la pandemia. Debido a que los alquileres del condado de Kern eran mucho más bajos para empezar, $500 representa un aumento porcentual mayor.
Pero para el residente promedio del área de Bakersfield, ese aumento de $500 en la renta es mucho más difícil: el ingreso promedio en el condado de Kern es de aproximadamente $25,000, según los datos del censo más reciente. En el condado de Los Ángeles, el promedio es de $38,000.
Algún alivio modesto podría estar en camino.
Las ciudades de Bakersfield, Visalia y Fresno han permitido aproximadamente un 15% más de unidades en 2021 y 2022 que en los dos años anteriores a la pandemia, según datos recopilados por el Departamento de Vivienda y Desarrollo Comunitario del estado.
La ciudad de Santa María ha permitido un 150% más. La mayor parte de las unidades nuevas o entrantes en la ciudad son unidades de vivienda alternativas (ADU): cabañas en el patio trasero y anexos. Para una ciudad que carece de lugares de habitación indi-
vidual de bajo costo para vivir, la nueva cosecha de ADU está “realmente llenando ese vacío”, dijo Honma.
Los defensores de los inquilinos fracasan Si bien la construcción de más lugares para que viva la gente es una parte de la batalla, otros han tratado de suavizar el impacto en los alquileres de las viviendas existentes.
A principios de este año, los defensores de los derechos de los inquilinos y contra la pobreza montaron una campaña para presionar a la ciudad de Fresno a adoptar una ordenanza de control de alquileres. Para una ciudad cuyo político más notable, el representante demócrata de EE.UU. Jim Costa, prestó su nombre a una ley estatal que restringe a los gobiernos locales para promulgar o ampliar las leyes de control de alquileres, fue un impulso simbólico.
Más al sur, los activistas de Delano competían para ver qué pueblo sería el primero en el Valle Central en promulgar un tope permanente a los aumentos de alquiler.
Ninguna campaña tuvo éxito. El consejo de la ciudad de Fresno se negó a incluir un programa de estabilización de alquileres en su presupuesto para este año fiscal y los líderes electos en Delano acordaron solo estudiar el tema .En Sacramento, muchas de estas mismas organizaciones de defensa han estado impulsando un proyecto de ley de la senadora estatal María Elena Durazo que, entre otras cosas, habría reducido un límite estatal en los aumentos anuales de alquiler del 10% a solo un 5%. Pero esa disposición fue eliminada, dejando solo nuevas reglas que dificultan que los propietarios desalojen a los inquilinos sin causa.

CA WORKS TO ROOT OUT PRICE GOUGING ON GROCERIES

general from more than 30 states - including California - just announced a bipartisan effort to bring down costs and create more choices at the supermarket. State law enforcement agencies are pledging to work with the USDA's new Agricultural Competition Partnership to investigate price gouging in the food industry.
Teresa Murray, a consumer watchdog with the Public Interest Research Group, said while recent inflation spikes have been a factor, it's worth taking a closer look.
"We very much believe in a free market, but not when it comes to crossing the line of trying to take advantage of individuals and families who are just trying to feed their kids, " she explained.
Beyond price structures, the USDA said states will be on the lookout for conflicts of interest, misuse of intellectual property, and anti-competitive barriers across the food and agriculture supply chains. Business groups like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce oppose the move, calling it an "overreach."
Murray added while there have been rum-
blings about these issues, it is hard to go into a grocery store, see higher prices, and know for sure whether corporate greed is at play.
"What are the manufacturing costs? What are the labor costs - which probably have gone up, you know," she said. "What are the supply chain costs? What are the distribution costs? And then where, at the end, is there a profit - and is anybody along the way taking advantage of the situation?"
Murray added there is no federal statute addressing price gouging, so state enforcement will be important. California has a law on the books that makes it a crime to price gouge during an emergency - but not all states do, and some are limited in scope.

Losfiscales generales de más de 30 estados - incluido California - acaban de anunciar un esfuerzo bipartidista para reducir los costos y crear más opciones en el supermercado. Las agencias estatales encargadas de hacer cumplir la ley se comprometen a trabajar con la nueva Asociación de Competencia Agrícola del USDA para investigar el aumento de precios en la industria alimentaria.
Teresa Murray, un organismo de control del consumidor del Grupo de Investigación de Interés Público, dijo que si bien los picos de inflación recientes han sido un factor, vale la pena echar un vistazo más de cerca.

Más allá de las estructuras de precios, el USDA dijo que los estados estarán atentos a los conflictos de intereses, el mal uso de la propiedad intelectual y las barreras anticompetitivas en las cadenas de suministro de alimentos y agricultura. Grupos empresariales como la Cámara de Comercio de EE. UU. se oponen a la medida, calificándola de "extralimitación".
Murray agregó que si bien ha habido rumores sobre estos problemas, es difícil ir a una tienda de comestibles, ver precios más altos y saber con certeza si la codicia corporativa está en juego.
"¿Cuáles son los costos de fabricación?
¿Cuáles son los costos de mano de obra, que probablemente han subido?", dijo. "¿Cuáles son los costos de la cadena de suministro?
¿Cuáles son los costos de distribución? Y luego, ¿dónde, al final, hay una ganancia, y alguien en el camino se está aprovechando de la situación?".
Murray agregó que no existe un estatuto federal que aborde el aumento de precios, por lo que la aplicación estatal será importante. California tiene una ley en los libros que tipifica como delito el aumento de precios durante una emergencia, pero no todos los estados lo hacen, y algunos tienen un alcance limitado.

HOW THE WEST COAST’S ONLY HEAT OFFICER IS COOLING LA
LA Chief Heat Officer Marta Segura is responding to the heat waves scorching Southern California as a public health crisis.

La responsable de la Oficina de calor de Los Ángeles, Marta Segura, está respondiendo a las olas de calor que asolan el sur de California como una crisis de salud pública.

Currently, only a quarter of all LA Metro bus stops are shaded.
LOS
ANGELES — As triple-digit summer temperatures sweep Southern California, Marta Segura is treating extreme heat as a public health crisis.
Segura, LA’s Climate Emergency Mobilization Director, also became its first Chief Heat Officer (CHO) in June 2022. As the region has seen record July heat with little relief, she has prioritized accessibility to cooling resources, particularly for underserved LA communities.
Extreme heat, the country’s top weather-related killer, is generally defined as at least two to three days of high heat and humidity with temperatures above 90 degrees Fahrenheit. On an extreme heat day, there’s an average of 8,222 more emergency room visits across California for related issues. Of these, 1,510 are in LA County alone. An estimated 16 additional people there die on the first day of extreme heat, with 40 more deaths a day by the fifth.
These hospitalizations and deaths disproportionately affect communities of color living in low-income, historically redlined neighborhoods, said Segura, “where the houses don’t have AC or air filtration. When you start approaching heat vulnerability that way, it’s not only a sustainability issue — it’s public works, building development, water and power, tree shade and park access, and certainly a matter of public health.”
Heat is the top public health risk in LA, which experiences heat waves five times more often than it did 10 years ago. As extreme heat waves in Los Angeles become longer, more frequent and more intense, public outreach becomes ever-more crucial. Across her Heat Relief 4 LA social media campaign, Segura emphasizes that “It’s not your typical summer anymore. Extreme heat can run from June to November. As this means our bodies have less time to recover, we also distribute information on symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke, and resources to cool off before hitting that point.”
Foremost among these resources are cooling centers; in Los Angeles, currently 119 are open. “We’ve established cooling centers and hydration resources throughout the city in facilities like libraries, senior centers and community centers,” said Segura. “We also made an app, Cool Spots LA, where you can find where and when they’re open, alongside other cooling spots like shade structures, hydration stations, and bus shelters.”
The need for heat interventions like these can vary drastically from neighborhood to neighborhood, partly because of the region’s coastal and inland microclimates. Accordingly, the city’s emergency alert system now uses National Weather Service data to identify heat wave severity in specific parts of LA.
However, these stark regional heat differences also owe to shade inequity. Research shows that with each 10% of canopy cover, trees keep ground-level temperatures about 2 degrees cooler. In a city where over half the surfaces are dark concrete or asphalt — which absorbs up to 90% of solar radiation — 20% of tree canopies are concentrated in four neighborhoods where less than 1% of the population live.
To address this inequity, 65,000 trees have been planted citywide in continuation of a 2019 plan by former Mayor Eric Garcetti to increase canopy coverage 50% by 2028 across LA’s least green neighborhoods. The aim is 90,000 trees by 2028. Environmental inequity is a testament to why extreme heat is a public health issue, said Segura. “LA’s least green areas are historically disadvantaged neighborhoods where we not only see more heat-related illnesses but also more pollution and exacerbated chronic illnesses like asthma.” Hence, life expectancy in wealthy areas with ample green space like Beverly Hills is as high as 90, while that in disadvantaged south LA neighborhoods less than 15 miles away is as low as 77.
Thus, she continued, when heat policies “coordinate with departments across the city, the county, and” — under Gov. Gavin Newsom’s historic $800 million Extreme Heat Action Plan — “the state, the result can be life-saving.” Nevertheless, CHOs remain rare. Segura is joined by only two in the nation — in Phoenix, Arizona and Miami, Florida — and seven worldwide.
However, she continued, it’s becoming a matter of course for cities to develop not only general climate plans, but also heat action plans. These are largely a matter of “short-term planning for public engagement and emergency response, and long-term planning for public health and resilient infrastructure,” she added.
The heart of her work as LA’s CHO, Segura said, is aligning climate equity gaps with public health results: “to treat one is to improve the other. We can see the results all over the world — if we have no plan, it’s only going to get hotter and hotter.”

LOSÁNGELES – Mientras las temperaturas veraniegas de tres dígitos azotan el sur de California, Marta Segura está tratando el calor extremo como una crisis de salud pública.
Segura, quien es Directora de Movilización de Emergencias Climáticas de Los Ángeles, se convirtió en junio de 2022 en la primera Comisionada de protección contra el calor (CHO-Chief Heat Officer). Como la región ha sido testigo de un calor récord durante julio con poco alivio, ella ha priorizado la accesibilidad a los recursos de enfriamiento o climatización, en particular para las comunidades de LA desatendidas.
El calor extremo, la principal causa de muerte relacionada con el clima en el país, se define generalmente como al menos dos o tres días de mucho calor y humedad con temperaturas superiores a 90 grados Fahrenheit (32.2 C). En un día de calor extremo, hay una media de 8,222 visitas más a urgencias en todo California por problemas relacionados. De éstas, 1,510 sólo en el condado de Los Ángeles. Se calcula que 16 personas más mueren durante el primer día de calor extremo y 40 muertes más por día para el quinto día.
Según Segura, estas hospitalizaciones y muertes afectan de forma desproporcionada a las comunidades de color que viven en barrios de bajos ingresos, históricamente marginados, “donde las casas no tienen aire acondicionado ni filtración de aire. Cuando empezamos a enfocarnos en la vulnerabilidad al calor de esa manera, no es sólo una cuestión de sostenibilidad, sino de obras públicas, desarrollo de inmuebles, agua y electricidad, sombra de árboles y acceso a parques, y desde luego es una cuestión de salud pública”.
El calor es el principal riesgo para la salud pública en Los Ángeles, que sufre olas de calor cinco veces más a menudo que hace 10 años. A medida que las olas de calor extremo en Los Ángeles se hacen más largas, más frecuentes y más intensas, la divulgación pública se hace cada vez más crucial. En su campaña Heat Relief 4 LA en las redes sociales, Segura subraya que “ya no es el típico verano. El calor extremo puede durar de junio a noviembre. Como esto significa que nuestros cuerpos tienen menos tiempo para recuperarse, también distribuimos información sobre los síntomas del agotamiento por calor y la insolación, y recursos para refrescarse antes de llegar a ese punto”. Entre estos recursos destacan los centros de enfriamiento; en Los Ángeles hay actualmente 119 centros abiertos. “Hemos establecido centros de enfriamiento y recursos de hidratación por toda la ciudad en instalaciones como bibliotecas, centros de adultos mayores y centros comunitarios”, explica Segura. “También creamos una aplicación, Cool Spots LA, donde puedes encontrar dónde y cuándo están abiertos, junto con otros puntos de enfriamiento como estructuras de sombra, estaciones de hidratación y paradas de autobús”. En la actualidad, sólo una cuarta parte de las paradas de autobús del metro de Los Ángeles tienen sombra.
La necesidad de intervenciones para enfrentar el calor como éstas puede variar drásticamente de un barrio a otro, en parte debido a los microclimas costeros y del interior de la región. En consecuencia, el sistema de alerta de emergencias de la ciudad utiliza ahora los datos del Servicio Meteorológico Nacional para identificar la gravedad de la ola de calor en partes concretas de Los Ángeles.
Sin embargo, estas marcadas diferencias regionales de calor también se deben a la desigualdad de sombra. Los estudios demuestran que, por cada 10% de cubierta natural, los árboles mantienen la temperatura del suelo unos 2 grados más baja. En una ciudad donde más de la mitad de las superficies son de hormigón oscuro o asfalto -que absorbe hasta el 90% de la radiación solar—, el 20% de las copas de los árboles se concentran en cuatro barrios donde vive menos del 1% de la población.
Para hacer frente a esta desigualdad, se han plantado 65,000 árboles en toda la ciudad como continuación de un plan de 2019 del ex alcalde Eric Garcetti para aumentar la cobertura de sombras naturales en un 50% para 2028 en los barrios menos verdes de Los Ángeles. El objetivo son 90,000 árboles para 2028. La desigualdad ambiental es un testimonio de por qué el calor extremo es un problema de salud pública, dijo Segura. “Las zonas menos verdes de Los Ángeles son barrios históricamente desfavorecidos donde no sólo vemos más enfermedades relacionadas con el calor, sino también más contaminación y enfermedades crónicas exacerbadas como el asma”. De ahí que la esperanza de vida en zonas de mayor afluencia con amplios espacios verdes como Beverly Hills alcance los 90 años, mientras que la de los barrios desfavorecidos del sur de Los Ángeles, situados a menos de 24 kilómetros de distancia, es de tan sólo 77 años.
Así pues, prosiguió, cuando las políticas contra el calor “se coordinan con departamentos de toda la ciudad, el condado y” –en virtud del histórico Plan de Acción contra el Calor Extremo del gobernador Gavin Newsom, dotado con 800 millones de dólares- “el Estado, el resultado puede salvar vidas”. No obstante, los CHO siguen siendo escasos, a Segura únicamente se le suman dos en el país -en Phoenix (Arizona) y Miami (Florida)- y siete en todo el mundo.
Sin embargo, continuó, se está convirtiendo en algo habitual que las ciudades desarrollen no sólo planes climáticos en general, sino también planes de acción contra el calor. Se trata en gran medida de una cuestión de “planificación a corto plazo para la participación pública y la respuesta de emergencia, y de planificación a largo plazo para la salud pública y las infraestructuras resilientes“, añadió.
El núcleo de su trabajo como CHO de Los Ángeles, dijo Segura, es alinear las lagunas de equidad climática con los resultados de salud pública: “tratar una cosa es mejorar la otra. Podemos ver los resultados en todo el mundo: si no tenemos un plan, sólo se va a poner más y más caliente”.

Enlos últimos años los desórdenes del sueño, se han hecho cada vez más frecuentes. Y éstos no sólo afectan a la población adulta, también están afectando a niños y a jóvenes en edad adolescente. Estos desórdenes pueden aparecer de manera ocasional, y en muchos casos desaparecen con el tiempo. Sin embargo, para otras personas, la experiencia es totalmente opuesta, ya que éstos suelen prolongarse por más tiempo y en algunos casos, se vuelven crónicos. En esos casos se debe de buscar atención médica de manera inmediata.
Los desórdenes del sueño más comunes y frecuentes son: las pesadillas, el sonambulismo, el temor nocturno, y el insomnio. Éstas en su mayoría, suelen ser provocadas por el estrés, los problemas cotidianos, la falta de actividad física, rupturas amorosas, experiencias dolorosas de la niñez entre otras causas y sobre todo, por la actual crisis mundial.
Las pesadillas se definen como una constante producción de imágenes y episodios tormentosos, que se experimentan y develan durante el sueño. Este tipo de sueños aterradores, interrumpen el provecho del sueño reparador, provocando una serie de malestares como la ansiedad, miedo, confusión y pánico; que ponen en alerta al soñador, a quien no le resulta tan fácil volver a conciliar el sueño. Al despertar de una pesadilla, el afectado suele gemir, gritar y en ocasiones llorar en voz alta. Si las pesadillas se vuelven constantes, el individuo sentirá temor a la hora de dormir. Sus horas de
sueño se verán reducidas, dando paso a efectos como la falta de concentración; depresión, sentimientos de culpa, ansiedad, y enfado continuo, que se harán presentes constantemente durante la vigilia.
El sonambulismo ocurre cuando la persona comienza a experimentar lapsos reincidentes, durante los cuales se levanta de la cama y camina mientras está dormida. La mayoría de pacientes de este tipo de desórdenes, pre-
sentan cuadros genéticos hereditarios. Y en un noventa por ciento de los casos, el sonambulismo comienza a manifestarse a temprana edad.
Quien padece de sonambulismo, no consigue recordar con claridad lo ocurrido al despertar, en muchas ocasiones se da cuenta de lo sucedido, porque amanece en otra parte y no en su propio lecho. Un sonámbulo puede volver a su cama, y caer en sueño profundo
de manera inmediata. Los pacientes en edad infantil en la mayoría de los casos, no suelen desarrollar trastornos emocionales o mentales prolongados, y pueden curarse en poco tiempo. No así las personas en edad adulta, ya que llegan a desarrollar numerosos percances como depresión, ansiedad, desánimo y falta de apetito sexual. Se ha descubierto que los pacientes que padecen de sonambulismo, durante largos períodos y no buscan ayuda profesional, corren el riesgo de contraer el desorden bipolar.
El temor nocturno ocurre durante las primeras horas de sueño, el durmiente experimenta terror y le resulta casi imposible despertar, cuando lo hace casi no recuerda nada de lo que ha acontecido y experimenta confusión. El pavor nocturno suele provocar amnesia, es decir que quien lo padece, recuerda muy poco la causa que le produce el pavor, en la mayoría de ocasiones las imágenes que vienen a su mente son muy vagas y sin sentido.
Si este desorden no es atendido prontamente, la persona corre el riesgo de que su vida y salud en general, se vea plenamente afectada.
Si experimenta algún tipo de desorden del sueño, como el insomnio por ejemplo, y éste se prolonga durante semanas, debe buscar ayuda profesional inmediatamente. El sueño reparador es necesario para todos sin excepción. Una vida sana y productiva comienza todos los días con una buena dosis de sueño.

California law provides that, for purposes of division of property upon dissolution of a marriage or domestic partnership or upon legal separation, property acquired by the parties during marriage or domestic partnership in joint form is presumed to be community property.

You should consult your attorney if you want the community property presumption to be written into the recorded title to the property.

Case No.: 3AD025944
Foster Hsu, LLP
LYDIA E. HSU, SBN 300370
TYLER S. GESBECK, PL474846
111 North Market Street, Suite 389 San Jose, CA 95113 408-841-7200
Attorneys for Petitioners, GLORIA ANN ESCOBEDO
By order of this Court you are hereby cited to appear before the Hon. Jackie Arroyo, judge presiding in Dept. 13 of the Court located at 191 N. First Street, San Jose CA 95113, on August 23, 2023 at 11:00 a.m., then and there to show cause, if you have any, why UNIQUE JOYCE MARIE MANCILLAS, should not be declared free from your parental control and custody, for the purpose of freeing UNIQUE JOYCE MARIE MANCILLAS for placement for adoption. The following information concerns rights and procedures that relate to this proceeding to declare minor free from your parental control and custody as set forth in Family Code § 7860, et seq.:
1. At the beginning of the proceeding, the Court will consider whether or not the interest of the minor requires appointment of counsel. If the Court finds that the interests of the minor do require such protection, the Court will appoint counsel to represent him, whether or not he is able to afford counsel. The minor will not be present in Court unless he requests or the Court so orders.
2. f a parent of the minor appears without counsel and is unable to afford counsel, the Court must appoint counsel for the parent, unless the parent knowingly and intelligently waives the right to be represented by counsel. The Court will not appoint the same attorney to represent both the minor and his parent.
3. The Court may appoint either the Public Defender or private counsel. If private counsel is appointed, he/she will receive a reasonable sum for compensation and expenses, the amount of which will be determined by the Court. That amount must be paid by the real parties in interest, but not by the minor, is proportioned as the Court believes to be just. If, however, the Court finds that any of the real parties in interest cannot afford counsel, the amount will be paid by the county.
4. The Court may continue the proceeding for not more than Thirty (30) days as necessary to appoint counsel and become acquainted with the case.

Q&A: ISABELLA ESLER & THE WILD WORLD OF THE BEETLEJUICE MUSICAL
Arturo Hilario El Observador
RecentArchbishop Mitty High School graduate Isabella Esler is coming back home as a Broadway performer with her first professional role as Lydia Deetz in Beetlejuice
A musical based on the beloved 1988 Tim Burton film which saw Michael Keaton in the titular role of the ghastly ghoul attempting to spook the family of Winona Ryder’s Lydia from their new home. The extremely popular musical comedy adaptation has been taking stages across the country and providing audiences with an incredibly fun and touching show about family, love and of course, the hereafter.
Beetlejuice will be coming to San Jose’s Center for the Performing Arts from August 1-6, 2023. It’ll be an especially memorable event for Esler, as she grew up sitting in the audience at that very venue.
Incredibly, Esler’s professional career started just last year, as she began auditioning for the show just as she was finishing up her senior year at Archbishop Mitty. She spent the summer of graduation doing callbacks and eventually landed the iconic role of goth girl Lydia with the touring production, which began its tour in San Francisco in December of 2022.
Recently Esler took some time to answer questions regarding her experience on the show thus far, as well as what this whole experience has been like, from being a San Jose teenager during the pandemic, to being thrust
going to go to college for musical theater or acting or one of those. And so I was like, "oh, just for practice, I'll send in something. I really love this show and this character, and I think it would be like a good experience."
I sent it in when they were reopening on Broadway, and then I didn't expect them to see it, but they did. And so I ended up doing some online callbacks for the Broadway show, and then over the course of that year until the summer, I did callbacks for the tour. So it's kind of like a yearlong process for me, which has been pretty cool and also really different from doing community theater, which has been great, but this was completely different. And now I'm here.
What is it like to go directly from high school into something like this? What are the feelings you have there in that experience?
Yeah, it's really crazy. My junior and senior year, I had the plan set for myself, I like to kind of think ahead. So I was like I was going to go to college for theater or acting and then I was going to move to New York or LA, one of those places and then audition and then work my way up and I was really set on that. So it was kind of crazy how it kind of went backwards for me and I didn't end up going to college and now I'm on this show, it's really jarring for me.
If you told me I was going to be on tour at the beginning of my senior year, I would not believe you just because it happened so fast. But
onto the stage of a touring Broadway musical in just a few short years.
How was it that you became interested in the performing arts and could you touch on kind of that journey, and to start your career in this?
Yeah, I've always grown-up doing theater. I'm really thankful for growing up in San Jose because San Jose had a pretty big theater community. I did a lot of community theater and did theater at my high school as well. And my parents kind of just put me in theater when I was six because I've always kind of liked singing. So that's always been my thing, I loved it.
And with this show, specifically my senior year of high school, right when I just started senior year, I saw an audition online. It was like this open call online that I saw and I was going to prepare for college auditions because I was
I'm so thankful for it. It's so fun. And also, everyone else, the cast and the crew, everyone is so sweet and have been so supportive of me and as I'm learning and kind of figuring this whole thing out. But it's been really great and definitely such a fun and interesting experience. It's a huge learning experience for sure. Could you talk about what it's like to step in the shoes of your character Lydia?
It's been really fun. I love this character. I think for one, being able to play a teenager when I still I mean, you know, I still consider myself a teenager. When I found out about the show, it was like right before COVID happened, so I was still 16. So I feel like a part of me being a teen, like all of those emotions you go through, I think it reflects a lot in Lydia because she's a young girl just trying to be heard and I think I'm able to kind of bring myself in her a little bit and I love that about her. She's really special to me

I feel like a part of me being a teen, like all of those emotions you go through, I think it reflects a lot in Lydia because she's a young girl just trying to be heard and I think I'm able to kind of bring myself in her a little bit and I love that about her.
-Isabella Esler
because of that. And I love being able to play around her angst and her cleverness and being able to mess around.
And I don't know, she's just been super fun to play around with in terms of her character. I also love being able to bring out her softer and more genuine sides, because I know from the outside she's a very goth character and dark, and so being able to bring out the more positive sides and I guess the innocence of her has been really fun too.
How would you describe the story within this version of Beetlejuice?
It's pretty similar to the movie I would say, all the same elements are there, all the characters are there, all the big plot points of the movie are there. So I think if you're a fan of the movie, you're able to follow along pretty well. It's interesting, in the movie, I feel like they focus a little more on the Maitlands, like the deceased couple. And in the musical, I think they kind of moved it into focus a little bit more on Beetlejuice and Lydia and kind of their background, their story and their development.
When I went to watch the movie, I didn't realize Beetlejuice doesn't come in until like halfway in the movie. But in the musical, he's in it the whole time. He barely leaves the stage. So it's kind of interesting getting a part of the movie, knowing what's going on, and then also kind of bringing this new side of the characters that you didn't see a whole lot of in the movie, which I think is really fun, and then also adding crazy different elements of singing and dancing.
So for Lydia, what would you say is the focal point of her journey in this show since her character gets expanded?
Yeah, in the musical it definitely focuses more on her journey with her mother, of her losing her mother. I know they mentioned in the movie a little bit how deal is her stepmom, but they don't really expand that much upon that. So in this musical, that's her whole deal is her trying to navigate - like they're in a new place while she's still dealing with the recent death of her mother and kind of mourning and realizing what that means and how she can get through that, which I think is a really important story to tell. And I think especially about loss and mourning. I think it's a very there's a lot of touching moments in the musical because of that, because of her journey trying to figure out
how to navigate a new world without her mother.
Looking back at the first 6 months of this show, what has this experience been like for you, being on this tour and traveling and getting to see different audiences in different locations every week?
Yeah, it's crazy, for sure. I could have never prepared myself ever for this. It's something you just have to do to know how to deal with it. But it's so fun, especially this show. On Broadway it had a really big cult following, very large presence on social media because social media is everywhere. I could only imagine how big it was all over the US. Not just in New York. So it's been really cool going to all these different cities and seeing all of these Beetlejuice fans from around the country. And every show there's always people dressed up and people invested, and it's really fun. And also a lot of artwork. I'm very thankful for this type of show just because it has such a supportive fan base and being able to bring this type of wacky, fun show to different audiences and see how they react to each different joke and stuff in different cities. It's always been really fun being able to play around with it.
And throughout the experience, has there been a favorite aspect of it all?
I feel like for me, honestly, it changes all the time. I feel like a lot of our energy just because a lot of the show is very much like talking to the audience and reflecting off the audience. So sometimes when the audience is really crazy and really vocal and excited, I feel like it makes every moment of the show so fun because you're giving back to the audience.
I would say one of my favorite moments would be right in the beginning of Act Two. The song is called “Beautiful Sound,” and there's like a bunch of different Beetlejuice clones and everyone's dancing around. And it's actually the craziest song ever because having to describe it to other people is really crazy. But I think that's why it's so fun because there's so much going on and just being able to see how the audience is reacting to all the flips and all the dancing and all the crazy screams and all the crazy stuff happening. It's really such a fun way to start back, too, and it's really thrilling, for sure.
How do you feel coming back to San Jose and bringing the show to family
and friends. And how does it feel to come back and do the work you've been doing across the country at home?
It is really weird because I grew up watching a lot of touring shows at Broadway San Jose at that specific theater for years. So it's really weird to know that I'm going to be on the other side, I'm going to be at that theater performing rather than watching. So I don't even know how I feel. It's really crazy.
It's super exciting because I get to be in my hometown, go to all my favorite restaurants, all my favorite places that I haven't been to in a while, and seeing all my friends and family, it's really fun. It was nice too, because when we first started, our first stop was San Francisco, which know, really close to San Jose. I was able to have a lot of family and friends watch us just starting our tour. So I'm excited to see, because I know some people are going to watch a second time after six months to see kind of how the show has evolved over the months. I'm very excited.
Beetlejuice is at San Jose’s Center for the Performing Arts from August 1-6, 2023. Tickets and info are available at broadwaysanjose.com.
