Perhaps Erik should do what I did and go interview his neighbors in Trainsong. He will find numerous "No Trespasing" signs and signs that indicate the police can arrest anyone found on the property, all added as a result of increased crime that came after the rest stops came in. 

In the Whiteaker, which bears the brunt of the Rest Stops since there is no public space in Trainsong, (they are literally across the street from our neighborhood and in it), we are simply overwhelmed. The Rest Stops themselves aren't so much the problem as is the fact that they add enough homeless to our neighborhood to push our concentration of homeless people up to 20% of the population.

I'm all in favor of adding Rest Stops in other neighborhoods. However, the six camps in/next to the Whiteaker really need to go elsewhere. Even without them, we'll still have a population that is over 15% homeless, which will still lead the nation. 

Disperse, then expand. It's that simple.
