I wonder if cities are getting better at counting the homeless. The big uptick in 2022 probably got them to pay more attention, hire people to canvas various parts of cities to count them. The numbers are definitely distressing. As someone in the Bay Area who has noticed a huge increase, it doesn't seem worse in 2023 than in 2022 (and Oakland is not on the list, which is odd to me).
