"Migrant Shelter Crisis: Growing Tent Camps and Evictions in NYC"
With a surge in migrants from the U.S.-Mexico border, New York City's largest shelter for asylum seekers on Randall's Island is struggling to accommodate everyone, leading to a tent camp forming outside the complex. Migrants are facing harsh conditions, including limited security, lack of facilities, and restrictions on cooking, prompting some to set up makeshift marketplaces to eke out a living. The city's policies, including a 30-day limit on shelter stays and long wait times for beds, have left many migrants with nowhere to go, forcing them to sleep in subway stations and on the streets.
