TUCSON , Ariz. — As he rode his motorcycle around the Hundred Acre Wood encampments, a man, who wishes to remain anonymous, rode through the vast expanse of dirt and trees to other encampments.“It’s a blessing because there’s nowhere else for us that are homeless to be without really being in any trouble,” he said.

The next highest month was in January 2024 with 907 reports and the least were reported in September of 2023 with 605 reports. The City said TPD and their outreach team have confirmed over 1,900 cases of active encampments since February 2023, and they said most encampments have been cleaned or removed.“Watch when they make everybody leave here. They’re going to have no choice but to break in houses, abandoned houses. There’s going to property crime,” he said.
