Isn’t this mostly due to rampant inequality as the main factor?

I remember whenever I mentioned the swaths of homeless people, locals would often tell me “they are homeless by choice”.

This attitude again, seemed to be very common and was one of the main reasons why I never wanted to move to the Bay Area.

Mekka it was no more - the disconnect was just too apparent to ignore from an outsider’s perspective.
