Not sure why you’re being downvoted because you raise a valid point: cities often “solve” their homeless problem by shipping their homeless to other cities. After all, a bus ticket is cheaper than providing shelter.
Cities that are extremely homeless friendly find themselves with an influx both organically (some choose to relocate themselves) and from other cities.
This is an issue in Portland and SF, to name just two.
Note: I’m not advocating ignoring or not helping the homeless. It’s just a difficult problem.
