Proportionally (to population), I'd say it's less than or around the NYC numbers.

Something really interesting: "Hawaii has the highest homeless rate per capita in the nation, according to federal statistics."

Hawaii the state spends something around 40m a year on the homeless.

But a lot of Hawaii homeless live in tents on the beach!

Just some interesting numbers. I know a lot of the homeless kids in Hawaii also get picked up by school buses as well.
