Janice Yu reports on the city's annual effort to count homeless residents who are living on the streets.City workers and volunteers spread out throughout New York City overnight in a block-by-block attempt to count the number of homeless people living on the streets.
Mayor Eric Adams joined the workers at P.S.116 in Midtown Manhattan late Tuesday night to kick off the city's annual Homeless Outreach Population Estimate Count. The count is utilizing volunteers this year for the first time since the pandemic, which may result in a more accurate count of those living in the streets.The 2021 count of 2,376 was likely affected by homeless people living in hotel rooms during the pandemic and an overnight subway shutdown for coronavirus cleaning.But the Coalition for the Homeless says this annual survey historically undercounts people, is merely the city checking a box and is of little value.
