Abstract
On any given night, it is estimated that over 2,400 adults and youth are without their own place in Washington and Benton Counties. Results from the 2013 Northwest Arkansas Homeless Census of interviewed adults (n=443), revealed that 63 percent were male, 80 percent were White/Caucasian, and 66 percent single. The median age was 43 years of age. This demographic profile mirrors much of what was found in the 2011 Northwest Arkansas Point-in-Time Homeless Census.
