   I used to feel uncomfortable in cities like New York or San Francisco because of the large number of homeless people. Berlin seems to be on par with them.

   It’s quite sad how things have progressed here.

     @obrhoff How is it comparable here in Berlin? Care to elaborate? Do you have numbers on this or is it just a feeling or perchance a hyperbolic mid-day rant? 🌝

     @djh I went out of my building and a homeless guy was sleeping in our house floor.
     Also I've been born and raised in the city and the amount of tents or sleeping places in house or shop entrances at night are getting more and more.
     I can't pretend it has always been like that (in comparison to the drug problem)

     @obrhoff Ah that sucks. I can feel (!) it's getting worse, too, these days. But unless there are tents and needles on the streets and toilet paper getting thrown around, I would in no way compare it to SF / NY.
