Homeless in McLean?

The cops used to pick them up and drive them to DC and drop them off - exporting the 'problem. They may be coming from Falls Church or Arlington now in greater numbers.

They need to do that again. Take them to PG county. I don’t want to see them in my neighborhood

Idk why the obvious is so hard for people to understand. And people really exaggerate how much of the homeless are drug addicts or mentally ill.

A LOT of the homeless are people who have jobs and fallen down on their luck with no family to help out.

That’s probably more true for NYC and SF - with their unique housing problems - than it is around here.

However- there ARE always a few working people living in their cars or in storage sites; they tend to be the newly-homeless.

No need for that comment and swipe at PG county.

I think that these people like living in McLean, otherwise they wouldn't be there. Unless you can live in a community that has retail, hospital totally inside your gates I don't know how you will stop homeless people in the state things are in today.

An opinion not supported by the statistics.

Agree. Very few of them have jobs.
