I generally agree with this, but it's worth noting the places that do have public housing have notably lower homeless rates when compared against drug use rates. Furthermore, most housing assistance is done through section 8 vouchers, which you would presumably control for if you repeated this experiment in the US.

- hollerith 3y agoYes, with US Federal Government subsidizing the rent. Many of these private landlords are non-profit orgs.
