I don't know. They haven't finished the homeless count for 2022. I suspect they are scared to announce it. People are probably dropping off from housed to unhoused at unprecidented levels. I wouldn't say our lives are way to good right now.

That's 2,239 people (16 percent of all surveyed shelter-visitors) that cited "economic reasons" as the cause of their homelessness, and there's a separate entry for unemployment.
