NYC Homeless Population Reaches All-Time High Under Bloomberg
Over 39,000 Homeless People and 10,000 Homeless Families in Shelters Each
Night -
New data show that, for the first time ever, more than 39,000 homeless New
Yorkers - including more than 10,000 homeless families, an all-time high --
sleep in municipal shelters each night. City data also show that, since
Mayor Bloomberg took office, 45 percent more New Yorkers sleep in municipal
homeless shelters each year. All in all, the new City data confirm that the
current year is the worst on record for New York City homelessness since the
Great Depression of the 1930s.
