The 10 MOST HOMELESS CITIES in AMERICA

In many American cities, homelessness is OUT OF CONTROL! Some Americans are homeless by choice. Some of us don’t have anywhere else to go - addiction and poverty mean they have to sleep in tents, in cars or in shelters.

Sometimes, its things out of their control - Disenfranchisement, lack of jobs, or a natural disaster. Many of these people aren't just living on the streets, they are dying on em too.

Currently, on an average night, it’s estimated that about 550,000 Americans sleep somewhere that isn’t their permanent residence. though that number is likely very low, considering it’s difficult to get an exact count. About half of those live unsheltered on the streets, or in tents or in their cars or in abandoned buildings. The other half lives in emergency shelters and transitional housing programs.

And of our homeless population, most are men, and two thirds are alone - or without families.

Overall, however, the number of homeless people has ticked down - about 14% since 2010. We’ll get into why that is later in the video. But we’ll also show which cities have historically high homeless populations, and which cities are seeing their homeless populations explode.
