Housing Crisis
(lemmy.world)
Based on currently available numbers, there are about 31 vacant housing units for every homeless person in the U.S.
Yes, and
You may disagree with some of these existing (especially 1), but still vacant =/= homeless people can or want to move in tomorrow
I would like to contribute that this covers all of suburbia, from a logistical standpoint. None of that is walking distance to, well, anything. So our homeless person trying to get on their feet will also need a car and insurance, or a whole heap of bus passes (assuming the bus even goes there).
