America Has More Homeless People Than The Whole Of Africa. by malali: 10:15am On Jun 05
[b]As of 2023, the estimated number of homeless people in the United States is approximately 653,100. This represents a significant increase of about 12% from the previous year, marking the highest number since such data collection began in 2007. This figure includes both sheltered and unsheltered individuals, with 60% of them staying in shelters and the remaining 40% living in places not meant for human habitation​ (USAFacts)​​ (National Low Income Housing Coalition)​.

This increase in homelessness can be attributed to several factors, including the expiration of pandemic-era protections and resources, the ongoing affordable housing crisis, and changes in the rental housing market. The data indicates that homelessness affects a diverse range of populations, with notable increases among families, veterans, and people identifying as Black, Hispanic, or Latino​ (USAFacts)​​ (National Low Income Housing Coalition)​.

For more detailed information, you can refer to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and the National Low Income Housing Coalition.[/b]


Before you JAPA, there are more chances you will be homeless in America than anywhere in Africa.

That's to be expected, Los Angeles would have one of the most expensive housing in the US
