People who are unhoused are not necessarily homeless. Their home could be their vehicle, a tent, a warehouse, or some other place. A home is a place you can come back to, where you can feel some modicum of security, belonging, or safety. A house is a structure, designed to be a home, but not always effectively so.

So I would argue that being unhoused is a more accurate description of many people's experiences and feelings than being homeless.

But the whole problem with homelessness is that these people don't have an adequate home. Few people actually feel safe and want to live in a tent in a park. And if someone really does, well then they're not in need of assistance so not really part of the relevant category then
