If you want to split up Europe to make the comparison favorable, split up the US to make it less favorable again. How many US states are below the per capita level of homelessness in the US?

Ok fine I went and calculated the aggregate numbers and indeed the homelessness per capita in Europe (EU) is higher than the US

EU:

1.1 million homeless people https://www.feantsa.org/files/Themes/Overview/2025/ex_summar...

Divided by a population of 451,990,314 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_European_U...

= 0.00243

US:

745,652 homeless people https://www.huduser.gov/portal/sites/default/files/pdf/2025-...

Divided by a population of 341,784,857 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_Sta...
