Stats disagree with you. Even the more liberal stats show that only about ⅓ are mentally ill. Significantly higher than the general population but not close to a majority. |

I'm not offended at all.Do these stats include people that suffered a catastrophe like a flood or fire? Do they include people that had their home seized because of a default? What about the shelter folks. They are in shelters for a myriad of reasons especially families. I would appreciate a clearer definition of what homeless is. |

They ARE the homeless population in NYC. The mentally ill, the drug addicts, and the alcoholics. It's rare that you find a homeless guy here who just happens to be homeless because he couldn't afford to buy or rent |

Such people would move out to the suburbs anyhow and wouldn't allow themselves to be homeless.The actual homeless are in those categories you mention, although some would lump alcoholism in with drug addiction. |
