Look on a US 2024 county voting map ( https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a8/2024_United_States_presidential_election_results_map_by_county.svg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a8/2024_Uni...), and look for democratic counties in republican dominant states. Obviously the big cities are easy to spot, but look for smaller areas.
These democrat counties usually try to offer better homeless support either at the local government or NGO level. In doing so, all the red/republican counties ship their homeless using Greyhound Therapy.
Helping to make homelessness not suffer as much gets more homeless, thus flooding the system.
We've increased our homeless population by 4x in the last 5 years. It popped up hard after the ban on evictions disappeared. Turns out kicking people out of housing makes them (drumroll)... Homeless.
