I left work late tonight and again saw in the parking lot a car with sheets inside the windows and the engine running. Someone who can’t afford Boston metro housing prices is sleeping in their car.
If I recall correctly, the strongest correlation with homelessness is housing prices. SROs used to be a way to keep people at the bottom of the market housed. Now it’s a Toyota Camry.
Progressive New Englanders hold their NIMBYism close to the heart and would rather someone sleep in a car (or worse) than allow sufficient amount of housing to keep prices down.
