The Regional Task Force on Homelessness's 2023 Point-in-Time Count found no less than 10,264 individuals experiencing homelessness across our region, a 22% increase from 2022.
today released the topline results from the 2023 WeAllCount Point-in-Time Count, a one-night snapshot of the minimum number of homeless people in San Diego County.
But new this year, the RTFH partnered with the California Department of Transportation to reach and count homeless people in encampments on Caltrans property, property they were unable to count in previous years. The RTFH says this led to an additional 661 people being counted this year. San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria immediately held a press conference to discuss the 22% increase, as he used the opportunity to blame the other Mayors in San Diego County. Gloria called on them to build shelters and facilities in their cities, explaining that the City of San Diego can’t do it all.
Despite all the “successes” Gloria detailed, the homeless population in downtown alone has tripled since he took office.
