[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Visited DC for the long weekend after moving away 5 years ago. Is it just me or has the homeless population increased exponentially? There were tents in many parks, on the sidewalk in DuPont Circle…. Basically everywhere. What is being done to help?[/quote] Happening in all the big cities. Due to Covid shelters were risky so they started giving them tents. For DC specific it is pretty amazing that the Park Service won't let you camp for more than 7 days at many popular parks but on park service land in DC you can have a homeless tent city for months and they don't care.[/quote] Op: I live in Boston and while it has gotten worse here, it is nowhere near as bad as DC. Maybe due to the colder climate in the winter, but I’m not convinced.[/quote]
