A growing number of Americans are ending up homeless as soaring rents in recent years squeeze their budgets.
According to a Jan. 25 report from Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies, roughly 653,000 people reported experiencing homelessness in January of 2023, up roughly 12% from the same time a year prior and 48% from 2015. That marks the largest single-year increase in the country’s unhoused population on record, Harvard researchers said.
I don’t live in US so for it’s not a matter of hope or gloom. It’s just my opinion based on what I see happening there. I know a lot of Americans would like the entire Internet to cheer them and lie to give them some hope but I just don’t see much sense in that. If you think it’s achievable than do you, fight for it. I was just wandering if people really believe they can get it.
Yes I do believe it can occur, with each election the generational clock is ticking forward in a detectable way. Though I personally live in a very conservative area so it tends to happen in the west and northeast before it occurs here.
