homeless clasification =?¿
(a) Primary homelessness (or rooflessness). This category includes
persons living in the streets without a shelter that would fall within
the scope of living quarters;
(b) Secondary homelessness. This category may include persons with no place of usual residence who move frequently between various types of accommodations (including dwellings, shelters and institutions for the homeless or other living quarters). This category includes persons living in private dwellings but reporting ‘no usual address’ on their census form.

Homeless Human Rights
Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted 10 December 1948 by the UN General Assembly, contains this text regarding housing and quality of living:
Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.[17]
homeless transit
A portion of them are generally in transit, but there is no generally
accepted terminology to describe them; some nomenclature is frequently
associated with derogatory connotations, and thus the professional and
vernacular lingo to describe these persons is both evolving and not
lacking in controversy.[13] Much of the concern stems from the European situation, where "homeless" persons of Roma, Sinti
and other ethnic descent have rejected the term "gypsy". Other terms
which some use regarding in-transit persons are: transient, vagabond, tramp
or "railroad tramp". Occasionally, these terms are interchanged with
terms not necessarily implying that the person is a traveler, i.e. hobo.
The term "bum" is used for persons lacking a work ethic. The term "transient" is frequently used in police reports, without any precise definitions across jurisdictions.

homeless Unsheltered
The "unsheltered" are that segment of a homeless community who do not
have ordinary lawful access to buildings in which to sleep. Such persons
frequently prefer the term "houseless" to the term "homeless". Others
may use the term street people,
which does not fully encompass all unsheltered in that many such
persons do not spend their time on urban "street" environments, and to
the contrary, shun such locales and prefer to convert unoccupied
buildings, or to inhabit mountains or, more often, lowland meadows,
creeks and beaches[12]
homeless :::
Homelessness describes the condition of people without a regular dwelling.
People who are homeless are most often unable to acquire and maintain
regular, safe, secure, and adequate housing, or lack "fixed, regular,
and adequate night-time residence."[1]
The legal definition of "homeless" varies from country to country, or
among different entities or institutions in the same country or region.[dubious – discuss][2]
The term homeless may also include people whose primary night-time residence is in a homeless shelter, a warming center, a domestic violence shelter, cardboard boxes or other ad hoc housing situation. American Government homeless enumeration studies[3][4] also include persons who sleep in a public or private place not designed for use as a regular sleeping accommodation for human beings.[5][6]
