We’re not disagreeing. I’m just pointing out rural towns don’t have the problem of homeless people creating tent cities because they don’t tend to have the services homeless people need to begin with.
It actually is a problem in my semi rural town. There is a small city ~15 miles away with a lot more resources and there’s a handful of homeless who won’t go there, even when there’s a blizzard.
No, it’s cities. Many cities have their own ordinances that clear out homeless encampments. Rural folk didn’t institute those ordinances.

Because homeless people don’t move out to the fucking country. They’re not cats looking for somewhere to quietly perish alone.
