Um, yeah, sure. These are the jobs with the highest growth rate compare to housing wage. This is an "all of us and it's going to get worse" problem.

It's a myth that having a job will keep you out of homelessness.
A full-time minimum wage worker can't afford a 2-bedroom apartment at Fair Market Rent in ANY 🇺🇸 state.
That same worker can only afford a 1-bedroom apartment at Fair Market Rent in 22 counties across 5 states.
Imagine waking up homeless. You have to hustle to clean yourself up to be presentable at work. You stash your bedroll in the bushes hoping it will be there when you get back. You spend every moment scared that your employer may find out your secret. invisiblepeople.tv/videos/ch…

The % of homeless families found eligible for shelter has continued to decline since Nov 2016. The eligibility rate for families w/ children is now just 40%–the lowest rate in 6 yrs –& even worse for adult families at 31%–the lowest in 8 yrs. coalitionforthehomeless.org/… #SOTH2019

“I did not sleep in a tent, or on a park bench, but I was still homeless. There are many students & people who are living just like me & deserve to be validated in their homeless status. We have already lost so much. We deserve to be recognized.” #HCYA
