REPORT: San Diego’s ‘Safe Sleeping’ Site for the Homeless Remains Nearly Empty Since Opening
We recently highlighted a story about the city of San Diego, California, which has created a ‘safe sleeping’ location for their homeless population which is basically a sea of tents in a parking lot.
Apparently, it’s not very popular with the city’s homeless people because nearly a week after opening, it’s pretty much empty.
Critics have pointed to issues like the heat and the fact that there are no shower facilities on site. People who wish to bathe have to make a request and get transported to a separate location.
