I just watched a current video of The Zone (huge homeless encampment) in Phoenix.
It's the first time I've heard of it. Anyone else ever hear of it?
The temperature was 110 degrees Fahrenheit. A good many homeless were interviewed. Most were homeless because of drug use.
I never realized so many homeless would take up residence in Phoenix because of the intense desert heat. In the Summer it's enough to bake your brain.
The vlogger did see one "cooling center" which was a tent, about the size of a room. But it was rather far from The Zone, so they only had 8 people visit that day....whereas The Zone is jam packed with people.
A community group was trying to get an elderly woman (late 70's) to go with them for help. The woman was taking fentanyl that day.
