Homelessness grows on Hilton Head amid strong economy
On Hilton Head Island the homeless population rises as tourism jobs attract workers who cannot afford housing. Deep Well executive Betsy Doughtie notes shelters are scarce and the island lacks a formal shelter. Local aid groups, including St. Vincent de Paul and Beaufort County services, provide emergency help, bus tickets, and modest support, while officials acknowledge economic growth contributes to the issue.
