It's good to have evidence, even for things that seem obvious or common sense.

The study's a counter to a right wing narrative that "generous" social benefits attract "social delinquencies" like homelessness.

You hear this type of shit from boomers all the time. They think large masses of homeless people are migrating to cities that provide services for them despite there being no evidence of this.

It's also a counter to the common complaint that homelessness is bad in CA because surrounding red states send their homeless there. Which means it's California's own policies causing their massive homelessness problem.

States are sending homeless to CA though. The real issue is corporations and banks (often foreign) getting into real estate and pricing for profit, not people. CA real estate is a goldmine.

Yes, because the far right were spreading their usual weaponized misinformation to promote the BLUE STATE BAD!!! narrative.

Specifically, they're horrible housing policy of the last couple decades. They're hiding policy of building no housing

You know, people always make flippant comments like this, but the reality is, yes. It is nice to actually have facts and data instead of "it kind of just seems like it". That's how the real world works.

No one said "all" but states are sending homeless to CA. The most notorious was Nevada which had to pay a large settlement.

States have gotten more clever in hiding it but it still happens. Hell, they're even doing it with migrants now.

Well according to this study it's apparently not happening on some grand scale like it's often presented. If no states ever sent their homeless to Cali, it would still be the same massive issue it is now.

Curious to see a study of the longevity of homelessness in other parts of the country. This cost of living and policy is a big factor are you homeless just die off avoiding high volume

The numbers are difficult to pin down, but the fact remains that bussing homeless in makes the issue harder to solve.

No.

We do have Republican governors literally sending busses of migrants and undocumented workers to "Blue states"... remember that? Although admittedly, that was mostly done as publicity stunts... and it kind of backfired on those republicans doing the human trafficking...

I think what you're trying to do is the pedantic binary word game. Some homeless are being driven from Red States into places like California, and many more are being created domestically because of skyrocketing real estate prices.

Homeless and indigents migrating to California isn't anything new.
There's a rather well-known John Steinbeck book about this, set a hundred years ago.

That's showing that it's not realistic from the get go. If you dont scratch those bits off, what else is making the cut? I mean you dont NEED roads to survive, right?

Yeah I worked for a homeless services nonprofit in SF and it was fairly well known from the research we did that most people were from at least the Bay Area. Not surprised it also extends to the state as a whole.

This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Homeless people obviously lack the mobility or means to re-locate across the country. That being said there are documented cases where homeless people are sent to California.
