Chittenden County Homeless Alliance Point in Time Count Analysis Final Numbers 5.3.18 What is the Point-in Time Count?

2018 numbers reflect HUD’s definition of literal homelessness: Individuals and families who live in a place not meant for human habitation (including the streets or in their car), emergency shelter, transitional housing, and hotels paid for by a government or charitable organization. Up through 2013, the precariously housed count was sent to the State, but not sent to HUD. The precariously housed figure was not included in the last five years of total State homelessness counts. Precariously housed figures are counted in other ways, including using data from the Department of Education.
