Definitely varies based on what you’re defining as “homelessness”, too. If someone enjoys couch surfing or living out of an RV, more power to them. Most people who do that, though, have some sort of home address or PO Box to receive mail. There should be considerations made for that and I don’t really see a universal housing project “forcing” them to suddenly own a house.

Buiuuut I have a feeling that more often than not people are talking about people who have had addiction issues or have “had their chance” at getting housing and “messed it up”. It’s a much deeper misunderstanding of how homelessness and addiction play into each other and exactly how unrepresentative the most visible unhoused people are of the entire group
