I was just reading an article about Hawaii. It seems that the unemployment there as of this September is around 3.4 percent and homelessness is 487 per 100,000. That is a very low unemployment rate and a high percentage of people homeless.
With Puerto Rico unemployment rate hovering around 12%, it would seem that homelessness rates would be higher than Hawaii. Yet I have not seen a lot of homelessness during my trips in PR. Maybe is because of extended families always lending a hand. I could be wrong, and it may be high but not seen by me.
Does anybody has any numbers on the number of homeless in the island of PR?
Anybody that can also speak of the situation in Hawaii?
Lets disscuss this and related items, I think it will be interesting to hear from all of you and try to draw some comparison where possible.
Here is the article I was reading http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/11/09/ho … -paradise/
