Notes
Street Count data includes homeless persons found outside, including persons found residing in cars, vans, campers/RVs, tents and makeshift shelters. The following conversion factors were used to estimate the number of persons living in cars, vans, campers/RVs, tents and makeshift shelters if enumerators encountered homeless persons living in these environments. Individuals: Cars = 1.54, Vans = 1.62, RV's = 1.76, Tents = 1.52 and Makeshift Shelters = 1.67. Family Members: Cars = 2.96, Vans = 2.43, RV's = 3.45, Tents = 2.75 and Makeshift Shelters = 2.42. Demographic survey interviews conducted with 4,934 homeless persons from December 2017 to March 2018 determined these conversion factors for the average number of homeless persons in cars, vans, campers/RVs, tents and makeshift shelters.
