Interesting phenomenon. From the U.S. all I ever hear about the U.K. is urban: Londoners living precariously in houseboats, blighted post-industrial cities in the North. I've seen tent encampments in the woods in the U.S., but it never occurred to me that it would be a thing in the U.K. Until just now, if you'd asked me where the poor lived in the U.K., I would have said "council estates."
