New York City is also very famous for its homeless population. These people are not included in the census and it is impossible to know just how many there are. most estimates say there are between 55,000 and 65,000 homeless people in New York City. Most are living out of sight, and many in the New York Subway. What really makes them famous however is the way they live. Some collect unwanted furniture that people with houses have left on the street and almost set up living areas in various parts of the Subway and in other places most out of where residents and tourists go.
