Many homeless shelters are empty, but many homeless people shun shelters.
Why do they shun shelters?
The simple best solution is the billionaires have to return their wealth to society.
Because it is huge long 10-30 years project to reduce population of the homeless
But on the contrary, the property of the very rich rapidly increased up 27% during covid-19.
Another word, middle class or below middle classes are collapsing with suffering.
It is not resolution to build up more shelters.
The management of shelter has to be improved for homeless to live in as below suggestion.

Unsafe and stolen,
Rash of fatal violence,

Below, these are minor reasons;
No Pets Allowed,
Denied Entry Due to Mental Illness,
Separation of Family Members,
Discrimination against LGBTQ People,
Fear of Contracting Parasites like Lice, Scabies, Pubic Lice, or Bedbugs,

Strict rules n regulations,
I met a homeless person who was under the bridge; did not want to live in shelter. He fought and punched a man; he was in jail 2 years, released. So he is afraid to live in shelter with other people.

After years of false starts, Huntington Beach breaks ground for homeless shelter,
August 27, 2020.

For Huntington Beach, the road to a homeless shelter has been paved with false starts and push back. Facing court-ordered deadlines, the city encountered public dissent over one proposed location after another.
Finally, Surf City is moving forward with a temporary structure that can house as many as 174 people. The facility, called a “navigation center,” is expected to debut in fewer than three months.
City, county and state officials gathered Thursday, Aug. 27, for the shelter’s ceremonial groundbreaking on a three-acre site sandwiched between Cameron Lane and Beach Boulevard.
“We have grappled with this issue for many years now,” Mayor Lyn Semeta said in a speech. “This center represents the city’s sincere commitment to supporting the most vulnerable members of our community by providing them with a safe space to regain their footing.”
Operated by Santa Ana-based Mercy House, the navigation center will have capacity for around 60% of the city’s 300 homeless people. It will serve as a stepping stone not only for people in need but also for Huntington Beach.
The prefabricated structure, which comes ready to install, will give the city time to build a permanent shelter elsewhere. And, the navigation center will allow police officers to enforce anti-encampment ordinances.
In 2018, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that a city cannot “criminalize indigent, homeless people for sleeping outdoors” if nothing else is available to them.
Soon to appear on the newly graded grounds will be an 11,600-square-foot “tension fabric” tent, designed by Sprung Structures. The Utah company specializes in navigation centers used in cities that include Los Angeles and San Diego.
“A sprung structure is much less expensive to put up than a building,” noted Ursula Luna-Reynosa, director of community development for Huntington Beach.
Within five years, she said, the city plans to replace the tent with permanent buildings for affordable housing. That was the original purpose for the site when the city agreed in February to purchase a few parcels of it for $3.16 million.
“The hope is that the navigation center will bring down the number of homeless people in our city by providing them the help they need to stabilize and get back on their feet,” Luna-Reynosa said.
Meanwhile, the city will find another location for a smaller, permanent homeless shelter to house “the most vulnerable people,” she said, adding, “The longer you have lived on the streets, the harder it is to get out of homelessness.”
In some ways, the timing of the city’s overdue shelter is fortuitous. In April, the County of Orange offered to reimburse Huntington Beach $2 million in emergency coronavirus funds to help get homeless people off the streets. The county also will help with operational costs.
“While there is very little positive that can be said about COVID-19, one bright spot during the pandemic has been the way that the county and the city have been working in lockstep together,” Semeta said in her remarks.
As speakers took turns at the podium Thursday, two dozen or so shovels awaited them – forming a loose fence around a plot of dirt at a socially distanced six feet apart.
Then the officials simultaneously dug in – symbolically launching another hard-fought homeless shelter in Orange County.
