Frightened neighbors have said one of Portland’s new city-sponsored homeless villages has become a hotbed for crime and drug dealing.
Homeless people, who were previously camping out on the Peninsula Crossing Trail in Portland, were taken off the streets and introduced to the city’s solution, the recently-completed Safe Rest Village.
But the new village, which houses 70 people, has caused mayhem for homeowners in the vicinity, who say it’s running rampant with drug dealers, loud noises and anti-social behavior.
