More than 560,000 people are homeless in America
According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) 2019 Homeless Assessment Report, 567,715 people experienced homelessness in the United States in 2019.
Although the overall population is over 320 million (as of 2018), the percentage is approximately 0.17%, but it is still shocking that there are over 500,000 homeless people in the United States.
Furthermore, this figure was a 2.7% increase from the previous year, 2018.
Therefore, unless effective measures are taken, the number of people experiencing homelessness is expected to increase further.
In particular, the number of homeless people in California was 21,306, an increase of 16.4%.
The increase is greater than all other states combined, so urgent action is needed in the United States.
On the other hand, in the "National Survey on the Actual Condition of Homelessness (Rough Survey)" conducted in Japan in January 2019, 4,555 people were confirmed to be homeless nationwide.
The total population in 2019 is 126,144,000 people, so the percentage is about 0.003%.
Of course, the survey methods and standards for being counted as homeless people are different, so it is not possible to directly compare them, but the scale of the numbers is still very different.
Comparing the scale with the world scale will help you get a concrete idea of the number of homeless people and problems in Japan.
Understanding the number of people experiencing homelessness not only from a Japanese perspective, but also from global numbers will help us understand the current situation more deeply.

More than 60,000 people are homeless in New York alone.
According to the Coalition for the Homeless, an American homeless support organization, there are more than 60,000 homeless people living in shelters in New York.
Looking at trends over 10 years, it appears that in 2009 there were around 38,000 people, and in 1999 it was around 23,000 people.
The increase in the number of people experiencing homelessness in New York is significant considering the previous numbers.
This difference from Japan is that the number of homeless people is increasing every year.
The number of homeless people in Japan has been decreasing year by year, with the number dropping from 15,759 in 2009 to 4,555 in 2019.
The difference between whether the number is decreasing or increasing is a key point in understanding the number of homeless people in Japan.
The Coalition for the Homeless says the number of people experiencing homelessness is at its highest level since the Great Depression of the 1930s.
The fact that there is such a sense of crisis will become a problem regarding homelessness in the world.

Many families are homeless
One of the things about people experiencing homelessness around the world is that it is not uncommon for families to experience days without a home.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) 2019 Homeless Assessment Report found that 53,692 families reported experiencing homelessness.
According to the Coalition for the Homeless, 14,097 families were experiencing homelessness in New York as of March 2020.
The image of Japan may give the impression that homeless people often live alone, but if we look at the circumstances of homeless people around the world, we find that many people live homeless with their families. There are many of them as well.
There are also reports that there are many homeless children, and as of March 2020, 20,939 children were counted as homeless.
I think it will make a surprising difference in that it is not only affecting adults who find it difficult to find work these days, but also children who are caught up in this trend.

If you go to an area called Skid Row in the center of the city, you will find a homeless enclave of at least 3,000 people under the skyscrapers.
After a short walk, I could smell the stench typical of areas with poor sanitary conditions and the strong odor of drugs.
Why is homelessness increasing?
We spoke to Georgia Berkovich, who has been involved in relief efforts for over 20 years.
“One-third of homeless people have drug and alcohol problems, one-third have mental health issues, and the remaining third are homeless due to economic circumstances. Los Angeles. "Rent prices are rising rapidly, with average apartments costing $2,000 to $2,500 a month. People who can't afford to pay these prices are becoming homeless."
Although rents are rising as the economy improves, renters' incomes have not increased significantly, making them unable to pay the rent.
In other words, people who have lived normal lives up until now are forced to become homeless. That seems to be the reality.

Homelessness in the United States increased last year for the first time in seven years. Part of the reason is that housing prices have skyrocketed. The worst of these is the West Coast. Employees of high-tech companies who earn more than $100,000 a year are forced to bypass tent villages filled with homeless people to get to work, prompting calls for local governments to take action.
People become homeless for a variety of reasons, including unstable income, domestic violence, drug addiction, and mental illness. According to recent estimates, more than 550,000 people in the United States experience homelessness. Another study found that one in four homeless people is not unemployed.

Utah leads the way with “housing first”
Effectiveness requires not only emergency measures such as provision of temporary accommodation and food, but also long-term measures. For this reason, Santa Clara County, California, has begun providing housing and medical care to the homeless. Los Angeles County has launched an organization dedicated to providing job training to former inmates. Utah is leading the way with its ``Housing First'' policy, which prioritizes securing housing.
It is intuitive that housing first makes sense. People become homeless in the first place because they don't have enough housing. But California needs to continue building 180,000 new housing units a year just to keep up with population growth. This means that we will have to increase the housing supply by more than 100,000 units than we currently have. Moreover, employment has increased eightfold in San Francisco over the past seven years, and the cost to build an "affordable apartment" has soared to $425,000.
Expanding the housing supply is essential as a first step. But we must also remember that the factors that cause people to become homeless are complex and that more needs to be done.

□San Francisco design studio Fuseproject has announced a joint project with New Story, a non-profit organization that addresses homelessness, and ICON, a construction technology company, called ``3D Printed Houses in Latin America.''
□The world's first 3D printing community is planning 3D printing in the summer of 2019.
□Currently, the project utilizes 3D printers to produce housing in an undisclosed location in Latin America. The homes will be built in just 24 hours at a cost of 600,000 yen each.
□The 3D printed house occupies a space of 120 square meters, and the space inside the house is about 55 square meters.

How long will a 3D printed house last?
