Some cities give them bus tickets "back home.". They usually return. This state is really tight with welfare requirements.

@Crazywaterspring I think some cities on the West coast and other cities in this county or state has given them bus tickets here. That’s the problem. We didn’t have all these problems before. The word has gotten out that the pickings are good here and they are sent on their merry way to join in on using the resources at hand. Doubtful they are on welfare if they are living in the woods. They get free meals at one of two soup kitchens. And shelter at Salvation Army. Free clothes, hygiene items, snacks, bottled water and many other things for free. And quite a few drink or use drugs and get their money panhandling or stealing things and selling them.
