High minimum wage has a high correlation with homelessness. I'm just saying that the cities in California with higher than state minimum have the worst homelessness. Seattle has worse homelessness than the rest of the state.
Massachusets has $12.00 minimum wage and has higher homelessness than Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, that have $10.78, $7.25, $10.50, and $10.10 per hour respectively. New York also has high homelessness with a minimum wage of 11.10 per hour and most of their population living in NYC with $15.00, and $12.75 for all fast food workers in the state.
The south has had a huge drop in homelessness over just the last few years. What did almost none of them do unlike other states? Georgia hasn't increased it's minimum wage since 2008. The only southern state with high homelessness now is Florida and it has a minimum wage a full $1.26 more than Georgia's which we've seen in the North is more than enough to make a difference.

Works with Minnesota too. The only state that breaks it in the whole country is Texas. One outlier in the whole country. All but one state's figures you can resolve the relationship between any two neighboring states with absolute prediction. That's incredible predictability.
