    No, they do not all have beds available, the space is extremely limited. In the US some places have less then half the beds needed for their states homeless population. https://endhomelessness.org/homelessness-in-america/homelessness-statistics/state-of-homelessness/#homeless-assistance-in-america

      For the record, that article is bogus. It’s counting total homeless population against beds available- NOT homeless seeking beds vs beds available.

      There are TONS of homeless people that don’t want to seek shelter because most sheltered won’t let you do drugs there.

      This would be the same thing as if I tried to argue that there’s a housing shortage because we are counting people that already live in houses or in nursing homes as people wanting to have houses and there’s not enough for these people.

      Try again. This time- use actual numbers that represent homeless NEEDING beds.

          So we both agree you’re wrong. Good. Now grow up.
