@bob @newsbot @DoomsdaysCW ahh

Here’s the „There are 15 counties in California whose total populations are smaller than the homeless population of L.A. County, which exceeded 75,000 people in 2023. If you filled Dodger Stadium with all the county’s homeless people, you’d have enough left over to fill Crypto.com Arena downtown.“

@bob @newsbot @DoomsdaysCW thanks for the help. I wanted to double check the context, 771k homeless?

I went to the HUD website. It seems they will be releasing the PIT data. I know a lot of states collected it, including #Maine, @bob .

So, 771,000 was the number reported in 2025 for 2024. "In 2024, there were approximately 771,400 homeless individuals in the country,"
