I've lived and worked in Boston and DC. You see the occasional person panhandling in certain places. There's some homeless on the public transit systems. Never once have I had to step over shit. Never once have I seen a homeless person bother anyone else. Never once have I had to step over feces. I didn't say these cities were special. I just said the west coast has it far worse. I have been to SF. The scale and nature of the homelessness is categorically different.
