California homeless vs Rhode Island homeless are polar opposites. You can watch all the Youtube videos but until you go there its on another level compared to here.

CA has nice weather year round while RI doesn't

CA has had a "meth" problem for decades while RI has barely seen a meth issue here.

Heroin problem has always been here from what I can tell but in the early 2000's the numbers did seem to rise however not having a meth issue here can be a blessing in disguise. Home grown meth labs are something else

Post-oxycontin, heroin/opioids is an everywhere problem. I'm not sure there's a place in America that isn't impacted. Meth has been oddly regional so far. I'm sure there's probably a good explanation for it that.
