The Spatial Origins of the Homeless: How the Homeless Vary in Their Geographic Distribution

The study categorizes homeless people based on gender, family status, the occurrence of alcohol, drug, and mental health (ADM) problems, chronicity and veteran status. Data for this study was obtained through the 2005 point-in-time homelessness survey in Miami-Dade County, Florida.
