Cave Creek Park - Cactus — Attraction in Phoenix

Homeless people are not all drug addicts, me and my mother got hit by inflation so we can't afford to pay for a apt.with just our SSI checks. People think that all homeless people are involved with the problems, but I have been homeless with my mother and our 2 cats since February 2024, we keep to ourselves and try to avoid the addicts and the problems. Though 99% are drug addicts, and they have big mouths. They all talk alot. We know, because we have been dealing with them. I am clean, not an addict, and my mother is the same.
