[quote=CONCHO]There are decent-looking people living in tents all over downtown now. It used to just be hardcore wastoids, addicts, and freaks, now there are a lot of people that look pretty normal. All ages too from 20s on up. I have even seen children. Drive past the library downtown sometime. There are also a lot of them east of park blvd. downtown.[/quote]
We took some friends from out of town to Seaport Village a few weekends ago…parked by Office Depot or whatever it is. Decent area, clean, wide sidewalks.
When we came back by about 4 PM, the whole area was filled with tents and homeless! There were a few dozen that we had to weave through to return to the car! Not just men…men, women and a couple of kids. They spoke with us and were jovial, but it was indeed a sad sight.
I hope things turn around soon. Best wishes to your friends, UCGal.
