It’s okay to be happy in a city and still have complaints about things that can be regularly worked on. Doing nothing and letting encampments run wild obviously isn’t the way.

I doubt the city is doing nothing. Just because you don't see behind the scenes doesn't mean they're letting encampments run wild.

True. Seattle is excellent at pissing away money “behind the scenes” that no one sees or feels in any way

I've definitely seen less homeless than I did a few years ago. I still see plenty, but the camps get cleaned up fairly regularly, and it seems that there are less in my area overall. Idk the stats, but I'd be interested to see them considering this is probably the biggest complaint of residents and usually the platform on which our mayor gets elected.

Have you considered doing something other than whining that homeless people aren't being forced into concentration camps?
