It’s not an urban legend. Mayor Bloomberg had a well funded, well documented program in NYC. Quick duck duck go.

Many others have piled on, so the burden has shifted to you. What support do you have for this being an urban legend?

Literally one search shows sources from across the ideological spectrum covering this:

And other cities are bussing their homeless to NYC as well. How can NYC fund the entire countries homeless population?

It’s real. There are plenty of articles about it. The cities are playing hot potato with the homeless because there’s no federal program to deal with it. 80% of the homeless get back on their feet in months. It’s only 20% who are chronically homeless. It’s a mental health and drug abuse issue.

Absolutely not an urban legend.

> This is an urban legend and gets claimed in every major city.

It's not an urban legend, it's well documented and there have been lawsuits based on it.
