Not a statistical analysis, but my intuition is homelessness in general correlates with how easy it is to go someplace better. From Orlando, $100 gas money provides a lot of options. From Vegas, not so many. From San Francisco, $100 of gas might not even get you to the state line. Even if it does, there's not anything better there and not anything better on the way.
San Francisco is a local minima/maxima. Vegas has more diversity of options within 600 miles. Orlando is just another place in the east. Consistent with my intuition/hypothesis, the report says Hawaii has a much higher than predicted unhoused homeless population. Objectively you can't get anywhere better/different with $100.
