What about homeless?

- JoachimS 4y agoSo there is a formal law stating that all citizens need (should, is expected to) have an address. But of course not everybody has an address registered. By choice or other reasons. If you don't it doesn't mean you get arrested, thrown in jail. It is just a requirement for a lot of things in the public services to work in general. The social services for example are pretty good at handling, solving issues like these when you are homeless.
