HOMELESS in Japan
Images and photographs of the homeless in Japan
There are relatively few homeless in Japan. Nevertheless, they do exist as the exist in almost every country today. The Japanese homeless are rather different than homeless found in other countries. The Japanese homeless seem to be ashamed of their condition and do not seem to be mentally disturbed as do so many homeless found in other parts of the world. They are very clean and seem to be polite as well as shy of others. One version for the existence of homeless is that, in many cases, the homeless person lost their job and their extended families are too ashamed to help them and at the same time, feel that it is their own fault for being homeless. It is difficult to say if that version is correct. Most of these pictures were taken in Ueno Park, near the zoo in the northern part of Tokyo.
