The gap between the highest and lowest rates is substantial. Washington, D.C. records 74 people experiencing homelessness per 10,000 residents, compared with just four in Mississippi. Among states, New York ranks highest at 73, followed by Oregon at 64.
最高和最低无家可归率之间的差距很大。华盛顿特区每万名居民中有74人经历无家可归,而密西西比州仅为4人。在各州中,纽约州最高,为73人,其次是俄勒冈州,为64人。
High poverty rates do not necessarily correspond with high homelessness rates. Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama are among the poorer U.S. states, yet each records eight or fewer people experiencing homelessness per 10,000 residents. Housing affordability is an important part of the equation, especially as the
cost of securing a home
varies significantly across the country.
高贫困率并不一定对应高无家可归率。密西西比州、路易斯安那州和亚拉巴马州属于美国较贫困的州,但每万名居民中经历无家可归的人数均为8人或更少。住房可负担性是其中的重要因素,尤其是因为获得住房的成本在美国各地差异很大。
What Counts as Homelessness?
什么算作无家可归?
HUD’s point-in-time count measures people experiencing both sheltered and unsheltered homelessness on a single night in January. Sheltered homelessness includes people in emergency or transitional shelters, while unsheltered homelessness includes people sleeping in cars, encampments, abandoned buildings, or other places not intended for habitation.
HUD的时点统计衡量的是1月某个夜晚经历有庇护和无庇护无家可归的人数。有庇护无家可归包括住在紧急或过渡性庇护所的人,而无庇护无家可归包括睡在汽车、营地、废弃建筑或其他不适合居住场所的人。
However, the count does not capture everyone experiencing housing instability. People temporarily staying with friends or relatives, for example, can be missed, as can people in locations unknown to survey teams.
然而,这一统计并未涵盖所有经历住房不稳定的人。例如,暂时与朋友或亲戚同住的人可能会被遗漏,调查团队不知道的地点中的人也可能被遗漏。
Homelessness Fell in 2025, But Remains Elevated
2025年无家可归人数下降,但仍处于高位
The 745,652 people counted in January 2025 represented a 3.3% decline from 2024. However, this followed sharp increases of 12.1% in 2023 and 18.1% in 2024, leaving homelessness well above levels seen during much of the previous decade.
2025年1月统计的745,652人比2024年下降了3.3%。然而,此前2023年增长了12.1%,2024年增长了18.1%,使得无家可归人数远高于过去十年大部分时间的水平。
Housing affordability remains a central factor. The National Alliance to End Homelessness
highlights
shortages of affordable housing, low incomes, limited rental assistance, and weakened safety nets as major drivers. These pressures can be particularly acute for households already living near the
poverty line
.
住房可负担性仍然是一个核心因素。终结无家可归全国联盟强调,可负担住房短缺、低收入、有限的租金援助以及削弱的安全网是主要驱动因素。这些压力对于已经生活在贫困线附近的家庭来说可能尤为严重。
Veteran homelessness provides one example of long-term progress. The number of veterans experiencing homelessness fell from 73,367 in 2009 to 32,495 in 2025, a decline of roughly 56%. Researchers and service organizations also point to affordable housing, rental assistance, and healthcare as important tools for reducing homelessness.
退伍军人无家可归是长期进展的一个例子。经历无家可归的退伍军人人数从2009年的73,367人下降到2025年的32,495人,降幅约为56%。研究人员和服务组织还指出,可负担住房、租金援助和医疗保健是减少无家可归的重要工具。
