Read with context.
The 2024 AHAR Part 1 landing page links PIT estimates and housing inventory files. Choose the correct Continuum of Care or state and preserve the sheltered/unsheltered distinction. This is explicitly a 2024 resource, not a claim about today’s count.
Before using a figure in advocacy, record the exact table or measure, geography, observation period, population, denominator and uncertainty. This page is a research guide; it does not claim that raw data have been imported or independently analyzed.
A one-night snapshot does not measure everyone experiencing homelessness over a year. Coverage, local enumeration and definitions differ from broader housing insecurity.
