Currently living in Seattle, and our tent city has been apart of the area for many years now (nothing new). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tent_city#Seattle.2C_Wa

  yeah, I have been biking past the "tent city" of Sacramento for a year now. This isn't something new, although it may be bigger now.

    I agree and I'll add that Sacramento's homelessness has a seasonal cycle to it. The homeless population increases every spring as the weather warms. There's a lot of migration involved with homelessness, apparently. I don't pretend to know the mechanics of it exactly, but that's what I've seen.

  I live a few blocks from Seattle's tent city. I've been keeping and eye on it since the downturn and I don't believe its grown.
