Definitely notice the homeless problem is tenfold post Covid. I work in the "nice part" of downtown (eau claire) used to rarely see homeless early in the morning around the mall now there are full on camps around the heat grates.
Its honestly more rare to take the train and not see someone smoking crack than it is to witness it first hand.
Theres this one guy in the plus 15s sometimes in a wheelchair that verbally assaults everyone who walks by (women moreso) these are the cases i dont understand how they are allowed to hang out there all day and yell slurs at passer bys.
Can't say i have specifically had interactions with any but it seems its everywhere these days
