PORTLAND, Ore. More homeless people died on Multnomah County s streets in 2019 than in nearly a decade, according to the latest Domicile Unknown report from the county and Street Roots.
People who live in Multnomah County, elected officials and social service providers look to these reports, and the personal stories within them, to inform life-saving policies and resources for the poorest in our communities. This report is dedicated to those who have died, their families and friends, the report reads. To all those working to end the epidemic of homelessness. And to those who haven t yet found a way off the street.
Homeless deaths increased 23% in Multnomah County last year
The Domicile Unknown report found that 113 homeless people died in the county in 2019.
The number of homeless people who died in Multnomah County jumped 23% in 2019 increasing to 113 from 92 the year before.
The increase is documented in the new Domicile Unknown report released by Multnomah County and the Street Roots homeless advocacy organization Monday, Dec. 21. The number of deaths last year is the highest since the annual report was first published in 2012.

From the report, we learn how many people died while experiencing homelessness, and also how and when and where they passed away, Multnomah County Chair Deborah Kafoury said in the introduction to the report.
