Cause of homelessness in America? It’s not drugs or mental illness, researchers say

BATTLEFORWORLD.COM | July 13, 2022: In the United States, a country that is always preaching to the world about almost everything, do have problems of their own, and one of them is homelessness. The official answer for this you'll hear, that it's likely drug addiction, mental illness, alcoholism and poverty. That is the game that's being played, to not address the problem, but blame something else for the problem. The United States has had a long history of failing to address the situation concerning the disparity in living standards, social mobility, etc. And some are of the opinion that there's a darkroom in America's leadership that supports and promote inequality, poverty, etc. as unwritten policies.

The hot topic right now around the US is the unavailability of affordable housing. - In the book "Homelessness is a Housing Problem," University of California Press, co-authors Clayton Page Aldern and Gregg Colburn have both analyzed the various contributing issues of homelessness, as well as the popular answers often given about it being related to mental illness and addiction. They have also examined the per capita rate of homelessness around the United States, looking at the rate of homeless per 1,000 people, and found that communities with the highest housing and rent costs had some of the highest rates of homelessness, which is often ignored when the government is researching the overall raw numbers of homeless people in their analysis.

Lets look at for example, the year 2019 count of people in shelters and on the street, revealed a homeless population of 56,000 in the Los Angeles County, 11,200 in King County, Washington, 9,700 in Santa Clara County and 4,000 in Multnomah County in Oregon. The homeless populations were similar when looking at per capita rates, with the city of Los Angeles having six homeless people for every 1,000 residents and the other three smaller counties, having five homeless people for every 1,000. And what they all had in common was a lack of affordable housing.

One of the co-authors of the book, Colburn, said: "That's certainly not the point of the book" to suggest that homelessness is not caused by mental illness, addictions and other issues, but these can be contributing factors. "But I firmly believe that we can't treat our way out of this problem. You could fix all the addiction in San Diego right now and you'd still have a problem with homelessness because there just aren't places for people to go who have lower levels of income."

The "High-cost rental markets that far outstrip area median incomes - and push renters into paying more than 50 percent of their income toward rent - certainly are a significant contributing factor to making households at high risk of experiencing homelessness," said Lisa Jones, executive vice president of strategic initiatives at the San Diego Housing Commission. Further stating that "When households do experience homelessness, those factors make it even harder for them to exit homelessness by renting in the private rental market." And "We also know that the longer a household experiences homelessness, the more likely other key quality-of-life factors will be affected, such as physical and mental well-being." ...
