> What percentage of homeless people are locals? Maybe 50 percent or less?
70% by recent counts. 22% from California (and 14% from other bay area counties). The remaining 8% are from out of state.

Not clear on why that is particularly relevant. Almost no one I know lives in the town they were born in, myself included. Of the few homeless people I know personally here in Oakland, all of them were born and raised in Oakland.
