You did it Joe! The homeless rate in the United States (not just California) is now at levels never before recorded in US history… Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and communist Democrat are truly historic!
Another crisis that Joe Biden has been pretending doesn’t exist is the homelessness crisis. The number of “unhoused people,” to use the new-fangled term for homeless people so we don’t hurt their feelings or something, has increased 12% just in the last year. Numbers rose across “all household types, the Department of Housing and Urban Development said in a new report,” reported by Axios.
About 650,000 people experienced homelessness on a single night in January, according to the report. That figure represents “the highest number of people reported as experiencing homelessness on a single night since reporting began in 2007,” the report says.
Other findings from the report:
Black people made up 13% of the U.S. population in 2023, but they made up 21% of the U.S. population living in poverty, 37% of all people experiencing homelessness and 50% of homeless people in families with children.
Asian and Asian American people had the largest percentage increase in homelessness, up 40% from 2022, to a total of 11,574.
Hispanic and Latino people saw the largest numerical increase, up 28% from 2022 to 179,336 in 2023.
CNN claims that homelessness hit record levels because rents have soared.
