You've got a pretty stereotypical view of the developing world.
Nevertheless, SF actually has pretty good services for the homeless. That's why there's a lot of homeless people there.
Given also that the median black household income in California is $35k, it sounds like you can actually survive of $30k in Cali without your kids dying of dysentery. Alternatively, if you want to 'scrounge crude shelter', there's 11 million square miles of public land in California.
In short, my eyes just about goggled out of my head when the response to "kids die from drinking dirty water" is "yeah, but they can live wherever they want".
