佛蒙特州1月28日单夜统计无家可归者3286人 较去年少100人但奇滕登县上升

佛蒙特州无家可归问题倡导团体联盟11月10日发布报告,对今年1月28日夜间全州“时点统计”的分析显示,当晚全州共有约3286名无家可归者,比2025年同一夜少整整100人,比2024年少约200人。这是该州无家可归人数连续第二年小幅下降,但仍处于历史高位。分县看,奇滕登县人数不降反升,达834人,全州最高;拉特兰县434人居第二,华盛顿县407人居第三。时点统计由各地服务机构与美国住房和城市发展部合作开展,每年一月选定一夜清点露宿街头、住收容所、过渡住房或政府付费旅馆的人数。倡导团体强调,单夜统计是重要工具,但会漏掉部分不那么显眼的无家可归者,实际人数可能更高。报告未公布今年露宿街头人数的细分数据。
Vermont Counts 3,286 Homeless People on Single Night of Jan. 28, 100 Fewer Than Last Year, but Chittenden County Rises
The Vermont Coalition to End Homelessness released a report on November 10 analyzing this year's January 28 "point-in-time" count: about 3,286 people were homeless statewide that night, exactly 100 fewer than the same night in 2025 and about 200 fewer than in 2024. It is the second straight year of a small decline in Vermont's homeless count, though the figure remains near historic highs.
By county, Chittenden County rose against the trend to 834 people, the highest in the state; Rutland County was second with 434 and Washington County third with 407. The point-in-time count is conducted each January on a single night by local service agencies working with the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, counting people sleeping outdoors, in shelters, in transitional housing or in government-paid motel rooms. Advocates stressed that the single-night count is an important tool but misses some less visible homeless people, so the real number may be higher. The report did not release a breakdown of this year's unsheltered count.
