500 Homeless Folks (Along Route 1 In Maine) Between 'Acadia' <--> 'Bold Coast'.

Wow. It is a route I have travelled OFTEN to visit MY 'Bold Coast'. Yes, I have seen some poverty BUT I can't say I encountered any homeless.

But now they are talking about it, I am NOT surprised.

House prices in Maine have been CRAZY since COVID -- though I think they are starting to moderate now.

It is also fair to note that there aren't, in the scheme of things, that many houses along this stretch -- & any within spitting distance of water will be over-priced.

There is NO mention of what the homelessness situation is on 'Mount Desert Island', i.e., around the MAIN BODY of 'Acadia National Park'.

Again, I have NOT seen any homeless folks per se. But, I can't be sure. Some supposedly live in cars.

On my future trips I will keep my eyes open.

Not sure what we can do.

I just wanted to bring this to YOUR attention. OK?
