Shelters struggle to meet homeless demand in Baytown
Baytown shelters say they turn away applicants as demand rises. A survey by the Coalition for the Homeless of Houston/Harris County reports nearly 10,000 homeless in the county each night, with Baytown's two shelters each housing about 30 residents. The county lacks hundreds of emergency beds and transitional units. Women with children and veterans form large parts of the homeless population, while domestic violence victims often seek shelter elsewhere.
