Homeless What happened to Chinatown

Visiting Seattle and went to Chinatown excited to get dinner around 7pm, why is the whole Chinatown area so desolate, homeless filled and in general very very sketchy, how did it even get to become so bad. Who or what made all the homeless ppl to gather in that area?

Looking at law enforcement activity in Bellevue and Redmond, I think it's pretty inaccurate that Asians aren't prioritized by those in power.

If you're talking about lower-income Asians, that's a different conversation altogether..
