Women, Indigenous and Black people account for a growing proportion of Vancouver’s record homeless population, according to a report headed to city council on Tuesday.
The numbers are drawn from the 2025 Metro Vancouver homeless count, conducted over a 24-hour period in March of last year, but drills down into Vancouver-specific data and provides a more detailed snapshot of the lives of unhoused people in the city.
Council is set to hear the report for information, but isn’t slated to vote on any policy changes.
