Bernie Smith: social housing commentator says homelessness stats probably worse than data shows - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

A social housing commentator says the numbers of people without a home is probably worse than data suggests. 

June Homelessness Insights released today show rough sleeping's worsening countrywide, across all measures. 

The 2023 Census indicated a 37 percent increase between 2018 and 2023, reaching almost 5,000 without shelter. 

But Bernie Smith says the Census wasn't that accurate - and explained many people on the street weren't contactable or didn't do the Census.
