RV WASTELAND: This stretch of LA County has become home to hundreds of RVs, many without working toilets. Nearby residents are fed up.

"We're in a no man's land over here," Rashed said. "Other surrounding areas seem to be getting cleaned up and so it's all being pushed into our corridor over here."

"It just seems like it's spinning wheels. It keeps getting worse. Clients don't want to come here and walk through trash. People - they don't know if they're going to attack them or not attack them."East Gardena/West Rancho Dominguez is in LA County's second district represented by Supervisor Holly Mitchell.

Those who live and work in this area said the lack of housing doesn't justify the lack of county services like trash removal and parking enforcement. Businesses have seen their taxes go up and property value go down. The program has a goal of removing 1,500 RVs countywide over three years. And getting people like Erin Echavarria, who lives in a broken down RV and is battling a meth addiction, the help she needs.
