EDIT: Just for context, relatively free-market oriented Singapore and Hong Kong both invested heavily in government funded housing to solve similar homelessness crises in the 20th Century. So much so that that overwhelming majority of people in Singapore live in housing developed by the government. It’s also used as a very effective form of soft social control (get a better house if you do X thing we want), so it’s not unreasonable to assume that it would meaningfully reduce crime as well.
