This metric is weird. Is it somehow better if “young” adults were homeless?

- Ensorceled 3y agoNo one is implying it's better or worse. It's important to know because it changes the problem ... if a lot of homeless people are elderly the solutions need to be different than if they are younger. For instance it's not "job training and introductions into the work force" if these people are past working age.

- rthomas6 3y agoI don't think that was implied, but yes! I'd rather be homeless at 20 than homeless at 70. Wouldn't you? At least I'd be less likely to die from a fall. At least I'd be more able to defend myself/run away.
