Seems like the excess housing may not be where the homeless people are. Like it’s great that there are 110 vacant houses for every homeless person in Detroit, but how is that helpful to Los Angeles’s homeless population?
They mention that both Syracuse and Detroit have a ton of extra housing and then say that Los Angeles has the highest percentage of homeless people. No mention of how many vacant houses there are in LA compared to homeless people. Unless they are suggesting we ship the homeless from California to Michigan, I’m not sure what they are suggesting in this article.
