Five years of retail pot coincide with five years of a homelessness growth rate that ranks among the highest rates in the country.

Colorado's real estate market has also been absolutely booming during that same time period. Perhaps a lack of affordable housing may play a role?

Directors of homeless shelters, and people who live on the streets, tell us homeless substance abusers migrate here for easy access to pot.

So, picking up and moving to Colorado when you otherwise have no money is easier than finding weed where they once lived? This one doesn't even pass the smell test.

It is as if they believe that people are abandoning their actual homes in Waco, Texas and moving to Colorado where they will be homeless.

Lunatic Californians leaving the mess they created in California and traveling to a new state to mess it up too.

They are like locusts, but with money.
