"To determine the estimated point-in-time homeless population:
As just reported, approximately 700,000 homeless people in this country on any given night are homeless. The country's total population for 2001 was 285 million. If you divide the estimated point-in-time homeless figure (700,000) by the total population (285 million), you can estimate that approximately .00245 percent of the country's total population experienced homelessness on any given night in 2001. If you apply that rationale to Ohio's total population (11, 374,541), you can estimate that 27,867 Ohioans experienced homelessness on any given night in 2001."
