Re: Homeless Mortality Data
#2If I read that right, the mortality rate in the general population in 2020 (1027 per 100k); was higher than that found in the homeless community in 2011 (814 per 100k).
Who says the world is not becoming more dangerous (and not just among the homeless)?

That's weird! Did something happen during 2020???

Doesn't 1000 per 100k imply roughly average of 100 age span?
Which seems really good to me.

It's a really unfortunate year for comparison. There was that one advantage to being outside...
For those not reading the article,
> The death rate across all 22 localities increased from 814 per 100,000 homeless residents in 2011, to 2,752 per 100,000 homeless residents in 2020.
> Among the general population, the nationwide mortality rate was much lower: 1,027 deaths per 100,000 people in 2020, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

No, but I really gotta know how you drew that conclusion

It might "just" be the homeless population is ageing. We really need a model prediction of how we expected the homeless population death rate to change over time. I doubt it is in a steady state.
"The number of Californians 55 and older who sought homelessness services soared 84% between 2017 and 2021" (from the article), so something demographic is changing. It'd be interesting to know what happened to their retirement savings.
