SROs are hotels cum boarding houses, cheap places to stay. They’re associated with the homeless in the US because the only places they haven’t been zoned out of existence are cities with many homeless activists. The answer to “Why isn’t there cheap housing?” is always zoning and the motivation for the zoning is to keep poor people away to protect property prices.
