I don't understand your comment as it appears a bad attempt at sarcasm but falls very short of that aim.
"He gets on the bus at midnight and rides the same 35-mile journey between San Jose and Palo Alto, California, until sunrise." If you are homeless (assuming without a job, as is not the case with all homeless interviewed in this article), is there a big difference to you between Palo Alto, CA and San Jose, CA? Each is equally unaffordable to pay rent and probably equally easy to panhandle (if that's what you choose to do).
