There are widespread reports that there is no shelter availability for single men in my metro area. I think I’ll be able to get a cot some nights, but I suspect that multiple times per week I’ll be unable to find a cot in a shelter within a 4-hour walk of city center. It’s hard to go around and ask at each shelter every night…there’s a limited time window for checkin so if my first two tries are full I probably won’t make it to a third option before they lock up for the night. Not sure what the legal thing to do then is.

I’m also a bit concerned about the safety and conditions in the shelters, being that close to unpredictable strangers. But I’d prefer that over doing anything illegal.
