[quote=Anonymous]It’s interesting to consider perception vs numbers (and, of course, perception is often reality). The number of homeless has actually gone down 13% (1000 people) over the last decade (now at 7,500) ; it is now not that much higher than, say, DC (6,900). I wonder if location, concentration, and provided shelter all contribute to heightened visibility? They tend to be in tourist/high-density areas, and distribution of tents over the past few years increase their physical footprint. https://projects.sfchronicle.com/sf-homeless/2018-state-of-homelessness/ https://wamu.org/story/18/05/08/d-c-homeless-population-decreases-second-year-advocates-worry-many-still-risk/[/quote]
