Economic downturns and job losses, particularly in industries like manufacturing that have been significant in Nagoya, which can lead to homelessness. Which causes Poverty: They lack the financial resources to be able to afford housing.
Family Breakdown: Loss of family support due to divorce, death, can also lead to Mental Health Issues: which can contribute to homelessness.
