It sounds like you encounter a fairly exclusive group of homeless folks. It's certainly unusual that they id themselves as sex offenders to you. I've been interacting with the local homeless community for over a decade. My ex is one. The only thing most of them are is homeless. Most have cell phones for a little while - until it gets lost or stolen or broken. Most are fed regularly sometimes and not other times. They have varying degrees of shelter on an irregular basis. Few are well clothed in a way that wouldn't be a concern in a job interview (or going inside a market or library). Few have a reliably usable address. In short, they fairly well represent unhoused Americans all over.
