I might be misunderstanding what you are saying, but if there are less than 600k homeless people in America and over 15 million vacant homes, it doesn't seem to be "caused by the physical reality of there being too few homes for the number of people".

That 15m number may be true, but it doesn't mean what it seems.

It's mostly homes that are between occupants. A tenant or owner moves out, and it takes a few weeks or months for someone new to move in.

It's also homes in depopulated town where there are not enough jobs anymore.

Neither is a practical source of housing for the homeless in SF.

Citation strongly needed.

I'm not sure I need to explain what happens when people move to a depopulated area?
