Do you think broke people should feel the same way about banks? Just take their assets because they’re in need? Besides, I’m not sure most squatters are poor. They tend to fill a captured house with new furniture quickly.
Shadija Romero has been making the news recently turning a 30-day or less Airbnb rental into a 9-month drag out fight, but she’s a probably only made the news because she’s mentally not all there. Most squatters aren’t delusional enough to try to defend themselves publicly or lie about things to the press.
When I look up squatters most of the info seems to pop up around DC and Maryland so if I wonder if it’s a particular issue around there.
I imagine squatters are more common in any big/desirable metro area, where a lot of housing is unfilled for months or years at a time because a property owner just wants to have “a place in DC” in case they need it.

You seem to know a lot about them, what are their names? Are they squatting in the room with you right now?

I think it’s probably more the legal regime, but a higher than normal number of well kept but empty homes could also contribute.
