I think this gets to a larger national economic issue: things aren’t great for most people, and when things get really bad, you move somewhere nice.

The many programs developed to tackle homelessness have been built around specific budgets/goals/KPIs, and are not able to handle the continuous migration of people with nowhere to go, and inherently political. I’m sure most politicians mean well.

Sure, migration trends, especially for CA say otherwise.. but there is a large swath of people that governing bodies are bad at tracking.

TLDR: another example of poorly designed government intervention due to misunderstanding of the dynamics behind the process (homelessness)
