    Try 95 to 99%.

    And not really, even if you have a vacant airbnb property in west virginia. That is far away from an unhoused person’s community… Where they get food, support, income and social services.

    And the idea to lock up the poor in their “own” community has been tried many times before, in very unsuccessful ways.

    I had a homeless outreach team under me in a big east coast city for the last five years. What they need is substance abuse treatment, mental health treatment, and a big social network that supports them… Or they will become unhoused as quickly as we house them.
