This is a mistake. As soon as you allow squatters to essentially start building shanty town communities, you are going to start exacerbating a lot of problems: drugs, crime, rape. All one needs to do is travel to Brazil and see the favelas to see the effects of an unchecked, institutionalized homeless population.

And there's plenty of crime that happens outside of those places in Seattle, like a totally insane number of car break ins.
