In any case, Seattle police don't even bother to arrest them any longer for theft or public vagrancy because they will be ordered to release them in 24 hours anyway. That's why RI went to incarceration and intervention. Per the video, Seattle has a large facility of some sort sitting empty. Better to spend money on turning that into a secure rehab center than to lose tax revenue from businesses failing and people leaving Seattle.

If you look at rents over an approximate 10 mile radius of each city, rent for a 1 bed 750 sf apartment is about 70% more in Seattle compared to Providence.
Yes, Seattle should offer more thorough drug treatment.
They also need to build more housing.

Give a homeless druggie housing and what do you have? Drug addiction, while not the only cause, is a huge contributing factor to the homeless surge spreading across the country. All the housing in the world won't fix the underlying problem.

When you get into the endzone, act like you've been there before.
